The 2 November 2010 Baghdad attacks were a series of bomb attacks in Baghdad, Iraq that killed more than 110 people.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
At least 17 explosions occurred in the attacks, 48 hours after the 2010 Baghdad church massacre[11] where 58 people were killed by a suicide bomber in a Baghdad church.[12] While the Islamic State of Iraq did not officially claim responsibility for the attack, a U.S. military spokesperson alleged that ISI-affiliated fighters might have carried out the attacks.[13] It is estimated that seventeen coordinated car bombs exploded. More than 250 people have been killed in Iraq in the last six days.
