BAGHDAD: Two suicide attackers detonated their explosives-packed vehicles just minutes apart at police stations in Baghdad on Wednesday, killing at least five people, security officials said.
At least 10 others were wounded in the twin blasts at around 8:30 am (0530 GMT) in Hurriyah, north Baghdad, and Al Wiyah, in the centre of the capital, according to officials from the ministries of interior and defence.
Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity.
Three other incidents across the capital -- a car bomb, a silenced pistol attack on a checkpoint and a "sticky bomb" attack on a car -- left seven others wounded, including a police brigadier general and two other policemen, the interior ministry official said.
