BAGHDAD TWIN BOMB ATTACKS IN TAYYARAN SQUARE KILLED ABOUT THIRTY ONE PEOPLE AND WOUNDED NOT LESS THAN NINETY FOUR OTHERS.

Viewers Corner News got report that two suicide bombers blew themselves up in Tayyaran Square in central Baghdad on Monday, January 15, 2018, killing not less than 31 people and wounded about 94 others. This is the second such attack in Baghdad (the Iraqi capital) in three days. According to the report, there was no immediate claim of responsibility, but the Islamic State jihadist group carry most attacks in Iraq. In December 2017, the government of Haider al-Abadi declared victory over Islamic State militants who seized control of nearly a third of the country in 2014. We also gathered that after the attack, Haider al-Abadi (Iraqi Prime Minister) held an emergency meeting with the Joint Operations Command and intelligence officials asking them to eliminate Islamic State sleeper cells and also ensure civilians’ safety. Viewers Corner News team express our condolence to the families of those killed, may their souls rest in peace.
