Police and health officials say four people have been killed and at least 32 others wounded in two separate bombings south of Baghdad.
They said one of the Thursday attacks involved two home-made bombs that targeted a vegetables market in Mussayab, about 45km south of Baghdad, killing two people and injuring 26.
The second attack took place two hours earlier when a car bomb hit a suburban bus station in the Youssifiyah area just south of Baghdad. Two
people were killed and six injured in that attack.
The attacks came on the eve of the Muslim Eid al-Adha holiday, which begins Friday for Iraq's Sunnis and Saturday for Shiites.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to speak to the media.
