8 die in Baghdad car bomb blast

A car bomb exploded in the Iraqi capital´s busy Wathiq Square on yesterday night, killing at least eight people and wounding 32, security and medical officials said.

Restaurants, a hotel and a tent used to serve water and tea to pilgrims are located in the square in the Karrada area of central Baghdad.

Hundreds of thousands of pilgrims are expected to travel to the shrine city of Karbala for next week´s Ashura commemorations marking the death of Imam Hussein (A.S).

The pilgrims have been targeted in the past, and the danger is higher than usual this year, with the Islamic State (IS) militants group holding large areas of Iraq that it has overrun since June, including territory that has tredationly used as a route to the sacred shrines of  Karbala.
