BAGHDAD
By Sawsan al-Qaiysi
Five civilians were killed on Saturday and 14 others injured in three bomb attacks in Iraqi capital Baghdad.
A bomb blast rocked al-Rashidya district in northern Baghdad, killing one person and injured six others, an Interior Ministry source said.
Four people were killed and eight others injured when two explosions struck al-Nahrawan neighborhood in eastern Baghdad.
Security forces sealed off the two areas and moved the injured to nearby hospitals.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attacks.
Recent months have witnessed an uptick in violence across Iraq.
Though most such attacks go unclaimed, Iraqi authorities usually blame them on Al-Qaeda-linked militants.
