Car Bombs Kill 9 in Baghdad

Nine people were killed and twenty-eight injured, in Baghdad Tuesday, when a series of car bombs exploded.

All three explosions took place inside a Shi'ite district, causing blame to be put on Sunni groups and Al Qaeda.

Residents say that the three explosions occurred almost simultaneously.

September saw 365 deaths, the largest number in several years.

Car bombs are the favorite tool of the terrorists, in Iraq.
