BAGHDAD, Aug 24 (KUNA) -- At least four Iraqi people were killed, including two police personnel, and 15 others were injured Sunday in twin explosions that rocked the Iraqi capital, police sources said.
Sources pointed out that the explosion was caused by the detonation of improvised explosive devices targeting a patrol vehicle along a recently reopened sideroad leading to the Ministry of Interior, killing two police officers and injuring two others.
Few minutes later, another explosive device went off as a crowd of people gathered around the scene of the blast, claiming two people's lives and wounding 13 others, as well as causing material damage to nearby cars.
Iraqi police forces sealed off the scene, and the injured were admitted to Al-Kindi Hospital for medical care. (end) mhg.sab KUNA 241215 Aug 08NNNN
