伊拉克南部连环袭击至少60人丧生
Islamic State has claimed responsibility for gun and car bomb attacks that killed at least 60 people in southern Iraq Thursday.
More than 80 people were also wounded in the attacks near Nasiriyah, the capital of Dhiqar province, officials said.
Militants opened fire at a restaurant and shortly afterwards a suicide attack carried out by a driver in an explosive-laden vehicle struck a nearby security checkpoint, officers said.
Three of the dead were police officers, while a number of others were Iranians, many of them pilgrims dining at the restaurant while en route to visit religious shrines.
In its statement claiming responsibility for the attack, Islamic State said it had killed "dozens" of Shi'ites.
The Shi'ite-dominated Dhiqar province is 320 kilometers southeast of Baghdad.
伊斯兰国组织宣布,对伊拉克南部星期四发生的枪击和汽车炸弹袭击负责。这两起袭击造成至少60人丧生。
有关官员说,发生在济加尔省首府纳西里耶附近的袭击事件还造成80多人受伤。
有关官员说,激进分子先是对一家饭店开火,没过多久,一个自杀炸弹杀手又开着载有爆炸物的车子冲向附近的一个安全哨卡。
死者中有三名警察,还有若干伊朗人,他们其中很多都是朝圣途中在饭店用餐的顾客。
伊斯兰国组织发表声明,承认袭击事件是他们制造的,并声称杀死了“几十个”什叶派穆斯林。
济加尔省位于首都巴格达东南约320公里处,居民中什叶派穆斯林占多数。
