Two civilians were killed and three others were wounded in a car bomb blast in east of the Iraqi capital of Baghdad, Baghdad police spokesman Saad Maan told Sputnik on Monday.

BAGHDAD (Sputnik) – "A car exploded in Alwa Jamila and resulted in the deaths of two citizens and injuring three others," Maan said.

Daesh took over vast territories in Iraq and neighboring Syria.

According to the UN mission in Iraq, Baghdad is usually the worst affected governorate with respect to acts of terrorism, violence and armed conflict. Last month, 1,075 civilians were killed in the Iraqi capital.
