Car bomb attacks killed more than a dozen people and wounded over 50 others in Baghdad on Sunday, police said.
Four people were killed and 13 were injured by an explosion on Sayyid Ali Sultan street, while three others were killed and seven injured in another blast at a local market in the city center.
Separately, two people were killed and six were wounded when a bomb on a minibus went off in Baghdad's northern neighborhood of al-Husseiniya.
Earlier on Sunday, four civilians were killed and 13 were injured by an explosion in Hayy Al-A'amel neighborhood in southwestern Baghdad, while another two died and 12 were hurt in a separate blast in the southern district of Mahmoudiya.
No one has claimed responsibility for the attacks.
Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi had lifted Baghdad's eight-year curfew on Feb. 7, citing "improved security conditions."
