Bombs strike killing at least 13 near Iraqi market

Three car bombs, one detonated by a suicide bomber, tore through a busy food market in a Shi'ite Muslim town north of Baghdad on Monday, killing at least 13 people in growing sectarian unrest, SIA reports citing Reuters.

No group claimed the attack on Jadidat al-Shatt in Diyala province, 40 km (25 miles) north of the capital. Officials blame a surge in violence on Sunni insurgents determined to tip the country back into civil war.

Officials said two car bombs were parked near the market and a suicide bomber in another vehicle detonated his explosives. The dead and wounded lay among the wreckage of fruit and vegetable stalls.
