Attacks in Iraq killed 11 people including five soldiers on Sunday, officials said.
Sunday's violence struck north of Baghdad. The deadliest attack struck in Nineveh province, when gunmen opened fire on a van ferrying soldiers from Baghdad to their unit in the provincial capital Mosul, killing five of them, an army first lieutenant and a doctor said.
Also in Nineveh, two separate attacks by gunmen left two civilians dead, including a member of the Shabak minority, according to police and a doctor.
Separate bombings on Sunday north of Baghdad also killed four people -- a child and three nurses -- and wounded 21 others, including a senior judge, according to police and medical sources.
