It extended the deadliest spate of attacks in the Iraqi capital so far this year.
A suicide bombing claimed by Islamic State in a marketplace in the northern, mainly Shi’ite Muslim district of al-Shaab, killed 38 people and wounded over 70.
Also, a car bomb in nearby Shi’ite Sadr City left at least 19 more dead and 17 wounded.
Another car bomb, in the mixed Shi’ite-Sunni southern neighbourhood of al-Rasheed, killed six and wounded 21, the sources said, in what a military spokesman described as a suicide attack.
