Truck bombing in Baghdad: At least 60 killed

A massive truck bombing in a crowded Baghdad market has killed dozens of people.

Reports suggest up to 60 people died in the early morning explosion at Jameela market in the Sadr City neighbourhood. At least 86 people were wounded.

Local residents rushed to help the victims, moving bodies in rubbish bags and sending the wounded to local hospitals in ambulances or in their own cars.

The blast burned much of the market, leaving charred wooden market stalls and scattering fruits and vegetables far around it - one witness described seeing produce covered with blood.
