Police say hundreds more were injured as at least 10 explosions tore through busy markets and shopping districts. Our Lee Ji-yoon has more. Explosions tore through the Iraqi capital of Baghdad on Monday,... killing over 70 people. Most of the victims were civilians. "The first car exploded in that direction and the second one happened in Bab Maradin. They've lost their lives for nothing." No group has claimed responsibility for the bombings yet, but it's widely assumed that Sunni Muslim Islamist insurgents,... or al-Qaeda's wing in Iraq were behind the attacks. Aside from those killed, hundreds more were injured in the blasts. "What crime have those innocent people committed? Four-year-old children were killed. What crime have they committed?" The latest attacks come amid worsening sectarian violence between the Shiite leadership and the Sunni Muslim minority in Iraq. The Sunnis began protesting in December of last year,... complaining of mistreatment by the Shiite-led government. Although the protests started out peacefully,... violence surged after a deadly crackdown on a Sunni protest camp in April. The Shiite majority, which was oppressed under Saddam Hussein, took control of the country after Hussein was overthrown in 2003. According to a UN count, more than 4-hundred people were killed in attacks in May alone, and many fear a return of the high level of sectarian violence that killed thousands of people in 2006 and 2007.
