    Security puts final death toll of southern Baghdad bombing at 6



    (IraqiNews.com) Baghdad security said Thursday a bombing that targeted a security checkpoint at the capital’s southern entrance left six dead as a final toll.

    A booby-trapped tank exploded late Wednesday while standing in line for a security check, killing six and wounding 19, the Interior Ministry’s Baghdad Operations said, adding that the explosion occurred 100 meters away from the security members.

    The United Nations Assistance Mission in Iraq (UNAMI) says violence in the country left nearly 392 dead and 613 injured, excluding security members, during February. Baghdad was the second most affected province with 120 deaths and 300 injuries, according to the organization’s monthly casualty count. It excludes death toll among security members after Iraqi authorities had asked to get such information exclusively from security commands.

    While several blasts are not followed by a claim of responsibility, Islamic State militants said they had been behind some bloody explosions and attacks that hit the capital in the past months, leaving casualties among civilians and security troops.

    Some observers believe Islamic State has been escalating attacks outside the city of Mosul, where the group has been losing ground and personnel since October, so as to relieve pressure by government forces on that front and to divert attention from group losses. They are concerned that the group could, however, shift to a guerrilla-style war and lone wolf attacks after the recapture of Mosul.
