Dozens Killed in Iraq Violence 
-------------------------------


 
At least 57 people have been killed and more than 170 wounded in a
string of bombings across Iraq that mainly targeted Shia pilgrims. At
least 22 died in a double-car bombing in the southern city of Hilla
while around 30 were killed in a number of attacks around the capital
Baghdad. It was the deadliest day of violence Iraq has seen since 68
people were killed on January 5.
