Mid of burned-out car STORYLINE: At least four people died in a series of bombings targeting Baghdad's Christian neighbourhoods on Wednesday, Iraqi officials said. Police said the predominantly Christian areas of Camp Sara, Sinaa Street and al-Ghadeer in central Baghdad were among the districts hit by bombings on Wednesday morning. A resident of Camp Sara said several "improvised explosive devices (IEDs)" inside vehicles had detonated in the district, which includes Sinaa Street. Video footage showed at least three burned-out vehicles in the Camp Sara area. Police officials said four people were killed and 11 wounded in the attacks across the city. Hospital officials confirmed the number of dead. The attacks underscore the threat to Iraq's minority Christian community following the church massacre last week that left 58 people dead. Al-Qaida militants admitted that attack and also threatened more violence against Iraq's Christians.
