On July 12, an ISIS suicide bomber attacked a food market in the Iraqi capital, Baghdad. According to reports, 11 civilians were killed and 37 others injured by the attack.

The vegetable market, located in the northern neighborhood of Rashidiyah, was crowded with people when it came under attack on Tuesday morning.

Baghdad has seen a dramatic rise in such terror attacks over the past weeks, most of them claimed by the ISIS terror group.

In the deadliest incident, nearly 300 people lost their lives after a bomber detonated an explosives-rigged vehicle at a shopping district in the Iraqi capital’s Karrada neighborhood on July 3. ISIS claimed that assault.

The Karrada bombing is said to be the deadliest to hit the city since the US-led invasion of the country in 2003.
