Iraqi security officials say two car bombs exploded at two five-star
hotels in Baghdad, killing at least 10 people.
The first explosion occurred in the parking lot of the Babylon Hotel
late Thursday, killing six people and wounding 14 others.
Moments later, another car bomb exploded outside a former Sheraton
Hotel, killing four people and wounding 13.
Nobody claimed responsibility, but Iraq is seeing almost daily attacks
that have been frequently claimed by the Islamic State group, which
seized a large swath of the country last year.
