ISIS update

126 killed including 25 children in Baghdad attacks; ISIS claims responsibility

These guys are increasingly annoying.

The deadliest terror attack killed 125 people, including 25 children, Saturday evening in a busy shopping district in Baghdad.

Families had gathered there to break the Ramadan fast and watch the Euro 2016 soccer tournament in a cafe when a suicide car bomb exploded, ripping through a multi-level building that also housed stores and a gym.

At least 147 were injured.

A second bomb exploded Sunday at an outdoor market in the Shaab neighborhood of southeastern Baghdad, killing one person and wounding five others, police said.

The attacks came just days after massacres at a cafe in Dhaka, Bangladesh and at the Ataturk International Airport in Istanbul, Turkey.
