Baku. Ziya Agazade – APA. A Baghdad court on Thursday sentenced 11 Iraqis to death for their roles in the first of a series of audacious attacks last year to target government buildings in the heart of the city.
The August bombings of Iraq’s foreign and finance ministries were a major blow to Iraq’s Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, who is seeking to reassure Iraqis his government has security under control ahead of crucial March elections, APA reports quoting “Associated Pressâ€.
There have since been two other massive attacks in Baghdad primarily targeting government buildings, in October and December. Those attacks together killed more than 280 people and injured hundreds more.
