A suicide bomber blew himself up in a crowded marketplace in eastern Baghdad on Sunday, killing at least ten people and wounding over a dozen others, police and medical sources said.
The attack in the mainly Shi’ite district of Baladiyat was the second bomb attack to hit the Iraqi capital on Sunday. A suicide car bomb claimed by Daesh at another market killed 13 people earlier in the day.
The Turkish Foreign Ministry issued a statement to condemn the attack and convey its condolences to the Iraqi people.
