Truck Bomb Aftermath
 Part of channel(s): Iraq (current event)

6/19/07 At least 87 people have been killed and another 242 injured in a truck bomb attack near a mosque in the centre of the Iraqi capital, Baghdad.

The explosion in Baghdad rocked the centre of the city and sent a big cloud of black smoke into the sky.

The bomb, reportedly packed into a truck parked outside the al-Khilani mosque, went off at a particularly busy time of the day. There were traffic jams leading up to a nearby checkpoint.

Witnesses said the effect was devastating, with the mosque's prayer hall being destroyed and several vehicles being set on fire.
