Baghdad-APA. At least 30 pilgrims have been killed by a female suicide bomber south of Baghdad, Iraqi police say.
At least 25 people were also injured in the attack in Iskandiriya, 40km (25 miles) south of Baghdad.
The blast targeted Shia pilgrims, many of whom have been traveling south to the city of Karbala to take part in an annual religious ceremony.
It is the third day of attacks on Shia pilgrims, with dozens killed in Baghdad and Mosul.
The Iskandiriya attack happened despite increased security along the route.
Most of the dead were women and children, police said.
