BAGHDAD (Reuters) - At least 10 people were killed on Tuesday by a suicide car bomb targeting an Iraqi Army patrol in east Baghdad, police said.
Four of the dead were soldiers and a further 11 people were wounded in the attack in the religiously mixed neighbourhood of Zayouna, including five soldiers, police added.
U.S. and Iraqi forces have launched a major security clampdown in and around Baghdad targeting Islamist militants and Shi'ite militias, but violence has continued to flare.
