Separate car bomb attacks in Iraq, mostly in the capital, Baghdad killed at least 32 people and injured dozens more Sunday.
Eleven people were killed after three car bombs went off within minutes of each other in the town of Taji, north of Baghdad.
Two dozen others were injured in the explosions which occurred near Shia Muslim homes in the town, Press TV said. Some reports, however, say the blasts targeted police checkpoints in Taji.
A number of houses and cars were also destroyed in the attacks.
Two Iraqis were also killed after a bomb exploded next to a bus carrying Iranian pilgrims in Madain, south of Baghdad. Seven Iranians were also injured in the explosion.
And a car bomb targeting a police patrol in Kut, south of the capital, killed four people and injured 10 others. Four others were also killed in similar blasts elsewhere in the capital.
Another 11 were killed in bombings across the country, including in Baqouba, a city further north of Baghdad and Mosul.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attacks.
