Karbala, Iraq (Reuters)-a Suicide Bombing took place in the Shiite Holy City of Karbala, Iraq, on Sunday, injuring 10 people, while other attacks killed five people, officials said.
Jamal al-Din Shahristani family, an official at the Imam Hussein shrine, said, a technician who works on a project between that location and the shrine of Imam Abbas herself up, raises a number of victims, the AFP report.
A policeman and an employee of the Hospital of Karbala say, 10 people injured in the bombing in the City South of Baghdad.
The second grandson of Muhammad's tomb is among the holiest places for Shiites, residents and is visited by hundreds of thousands of pilgrims from Iraq and abroad every year.
There is no party that claimed responsibility for the attacks, but Sunni guerrillas often launch such attacks in an attempt to destabilize the Government and encourage the return of sectarian violence like in 2005-2008.
Also Sunday, three roadside bombs exploded next to the northeast of Baghdad, killing two people and injuring nine others, said some medical and security officials, while a bomb killed a soldier in a magnetic patch in Utayfiyah, North of Baghdad.
A number of armed men also attacked the checkpoint west of the northern city of Mosul, Iraq, killing two soldiers, said an army officer and a doctor.
Violence is the last of a wave of bombings and suicide attacks in the middle of a political crisis between Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki and his Government partners and protest marches over the past few weeks demanding his resignation.
Throughout February, 220 people were killed in violence in Iraq, according to the data, based on AFP information from security sources and medical.
Iraq is engulfed in political chaos and violence that killed thousands of people since u.s. forces completed a withdrawal from the country on 18 December 2011, leaving security responsibilities to Iraq troops.
In addition to having problems with the Kurds, Iraq's Government is also at odds with Sunni groups.
Iraq's Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki (Shiite) since December 2011 sought the arrest of Vice President Tareq al-Hashemi on charges of terrorism and attempting to dismiss Deputy Prime Minister Saleh al-absolute. Both are Sunni leaders.
Iraq officials issued an arrest warrant for Vice President Tareq al-Hashemi on December 19, 2011 after they gain recognition that connect him with terrorist activity.
Dozens of guards of Hashemi, a Sunni Arab leader, was arrested in a few weeks after the announcement, but it is not clear how many people were now on hold.
Hashemi, who denied the allegations, was hiding in the Kurdish autonomous region in northern Iraq, and Kurdish leaders refused to pass them to Baghdad.
The Kurdish government even allowed the regional visit to Hashemi did Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Turkey. (M014)
