Sunday's blasts began with a parked car bomb which exploded in the city of Kut ...Six people were killed and 15 others wounded in that attack, The Associated Press reported.
The attack was followed by another car bomb outside the city which targeted construction workers, killing five and wounded 12 others, police officials said.
One of the deadliest attacks took place in the Shia-populated neighborhood of al-Ameen...a bomber blew himself up inside a cafe, killing at least 11 people and wounding 25 others.
A shooting also broke out near the northern city of Mosul...At least four people were killed and five others wounded in the incident.
Other attacks were carried out in the cities of Hillah, Madian, Aziziyah, Mahmudiyah, Nasiriyah, Tuz Khurmatu, Najaf, and Basra on Sunday. Reports said that most of the car bombs hit Shia-majority areas.
No group immediately claimed responsibility for the bombings, but al-Qaeda-linked militant groups, which seek to destabilize the central government of Iraq, frequently carry out such coordinated attacks.
