In Iraq, the death toll from yesterday's bombings in Baghdad has climbed to 160, with at least 540 wounded in the attacks. The coordinated attacks, near the justice and local government ministries and the provincial government HQ, were Baghdad's bloodiest since April 2007. Suicide bombers detonated two vehicles, a lorry at a busy junction near the two ministries and a car in a parking bay. American troops have been called in to help the investigation and Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri Maliki has pledged that the perpetrators will be brought to justice. Iran's foreign ministry also joined international condemnation, saying such actions aim to wreck stability and the process of reinforcing democratic structures.
