Sectarian Attacks Kill Scores in Iraq 
--------------------------------------


 
A car bomb has killed at least 10 people today in the Iraqi capital
Baghdad. Across Iraq on Monday, at least four dozen people were killed
in a series of bombings targeting mainly Shiite areas. In Baghdad, 11
people were killed by a suicide attack inside a mosque. The Islamic
State has claimed responsibility for that attack, calling it revenge for
a mass shooting that killed 73 people at a Sunni mosque east of the
capital on Friday.
