At least 107 people have lost their lives in a series of attacks in Iraq, on Monday.
Nearly three hundred more were injured in the bombings and shootings all across the country.
Iran backed Al Qaeda groups are being blamed for the attacks, but no one has actually claimed responsibility.
The attacks on Monday, as well as ones on Sunday, come during the Muslim holy days of Ramadan, which began Saturday.
Before these attacks, there had actually been a whole two weeks without attacks, in the country.
Many of the attacks were aimed at police, security forces, and or Iraqi military.
In June a total of 237 were killed, and 603 were wounded.
The increase in violence comes as many Iraqis are finally returning home, as they are fleeing the violence in Syria.
