5 Killed, 7 Wounded in Iraq Mortar Attack

57 minutes ago

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Three mortar rounds struck a crowded cafe in a predominantly Shiite neighborhood in Baghdad on Saturday night, killing five civilians and wounding seven, police said.

The strike occurred at about 9 p.m., when many people are on the streets before an 11 p.m. curfew.

The attack happened a few hundred yards from where three car bombs killed 19 people at a restaurant and a bus station Wednesday in the Shula neighborhood, police Maj. Mousa Abdul Karim said.
