An explosion that occurred on Saturday east of Baghdad resulted in at least 9 deaths and more than 20 injuries, according to an initial assessment from a security source in Iraq.
Citing medical and security sources, he continued, “the explosion happened near a football stadium and a café in the Al-Banwar district, east of the Iraqi capital.”
While the explosion was audible in many parts of Baghdad, it took place in an open garage close to a football stadium in a residential area to the east of the capital.
The official security media cell said it had begun the necessary measures to find out the causes of the accident.
These changes occurred as a result of the parliament giving the Sudanese government confidence last Thursday after it presented its ministerial programme, which received an overwhelming majority of votes.
The Sudanese (52 years old), a governor and a former minister from the traditional Shiite political class, was given the task of forming the cabinet on October 13 by the newly elected President of the Republic, Abdul Latif Rashid.
In the blast east of Baghdad, 9 people were killed and more than 20 more were hurt.
