The 6 March 2008 Baghdad bombing was a suicide bombing attack on a shopping district in Baghdad, the capital city of Iraq, on 6 March 2008, killing 68 people and wounding 120.
The attack happened in the neighbourhood of Karrada. The attack consisted of a double bombing. A roadside bomb exploded at first and then, when the first responders and other civilians were rushing to help the wounded, a suicide bomber blew himself up.[1]
