BLASTS have killed at least 15 people in Shi'ite-majority areas of Baghdad, officials say, in the latest attacks to hit Iraq as the country struggles with protests and a political crisis.
Three car bombs struck Sadr City in the north of the city on Sunday, while one car bomb each exploded in Ameen, Al-Husseiniyah and Kamaliyah in the east, and a roadside bomb blew up in Karrada in central Baghdad, security and medical officials said.
The blasts killed at least 15 people and wounded about 80.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for Sunday's wave of attacks.
These latest incidents in a spike in violence come as Iraq grapples with nearly two months of anti-government protests centred on Sunni-majority areas in north and west Iraq, and a political crisis in the capital.
At least 150 people have been killed in violence this month, according to an AFP tally based on reports from security and medical officials nationwide.
The Baghdad bombings follow a series of attacks on Saturday that killed five people, including the head of Iraq's intelligence academy.
Two suicide bombers killed Brigadier General Aouni Ali and two of his guards, and more bombings caused the deaths of a judge and an army lieutenant.
The attacks come after weeks of rallies in Sunni-majority areas calling for the removal of Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, who is a Shi'ite.
