Suicide attacks at factory north of Baghdad kill 11 – police sources | 15 May 2016 | Bomb attacks against a state-run cooking gas factory in Baghdad's northern outskirts on Sunday killed at least 11 people, including policemen, and wounded 21 others, police sources said. A suicide car bomb went off at the entrance of the facility in Taji at around 0600 local time (2300 EDT), allowing another vehicle carrying at least six attackers with explosive vests to enter the facility where they clashed with security forces, the sources said. A spokesman for Baghdad Operations Command said three of the facility's gas storages were set alight amid the violence before security forces were able to bring the situation under control.
