The death toll for last Sunday’s Baghdad suicide bombing rose to at least 213, making it one of the deadliest militant attacks on Iraq. More than 200 are also wounded. Officials said the Islamic State (ISIS) group claimed the attacks. The bombing came just a week after Iraqi forces won a major victory over ISIS, retaking the city of Fallujah, one of the jihadist group’s last remaining strongholds in the country. Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi vowed “punishment” for those responsible, and declared three days of mourning for the victims of the attack.
