Baghdad, November 13 (RHC)-- At least 25 people have been killed and 71 others wounded in bomb attacks in different neighborhoods in the Iraqi capital of Baghdad. In one attack on Friday, an assailant detonated his explosive-laden vest at a funeral of a Shia fighter killed in Anbar Province in the battle against the Daesh Takfiri terrorists.

A police official told the Associated Press that at least 18 people were killed and 41 wounded in the blast carried out in the capital's southwestern suburb of Hay al-Amal. Also in the Iraqi capital, two bomb attacks on a Shia shrine in Sadr City left seven people dead and nearly 30 others wounded.

The northern and western parts of Iraq have been plagued by the Daesh terrorists, who began their spread of terror through some parts of the Iraqi territory in June 2014.

The United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq says a total of 717 Iraqis were killed and another 1,216 wounded in acts of terrorism, violence and armed conflict in September alone.

According to the UN mission, the number of civilian fatalities stood at 537. Violence also claimed the lives of 180 members of the Iraqi security forces. A large portion of the fatalities was recorded in Baghdad, where 257 civilians were killed.
