Five others were wounded in the attack in the Sheikh Othman district of the port city. The suicide bomber rammed his explosives-laden vehicle into an area where security forces and pro-government militiamen had assembled. The same day, at least 38 people have been killed by a suicide bomb at a Shia funeral north-east of Iraq’s capital, officials say. Another 58 people were injured in the blast in Muqdadiya, Diyala province, some 80km (50 miles) from Baghdad. Several leading figures in the Shia-dominated Popular Mobilisation Forces were among the victims.
