Truck bombs and a barrage of mortars have killed at least 75 people and hurt at least 310 in central Baghdad in the deadliest series of attacks in months. One vehicle exploded outside the foreign ministry near the perimeter of the heavily guarded government Green Zone, reportedly leaving a huge crater. Another blast went off close to the finance ministry building. There have been no official accusations about who is behind the attacks, or claims of responsibility.
