At least 50 people are killed in three separate bomb attacks in Iraq. The bombs all seem to target Sunni Arab areas of Iraq.

The Sunni Arab parts of Iraq attacked had been comparatively quiet of late.

The worst attack killed 49 people and injured 70 outside a local government office in Baquba and is the most deadly in Iraq for six weeks.
