MANILA (Mabuhay) – The Department of Foreign Affairs said no Filipino was reported killed nor injured in the bombing incident in two Baghdad hotels.
The DFA quoted the report of the Philippine embassy in Baghdad, Iraq.
At least 10 people were killed while 30 others were injured after car bombs exploded in the parking lots of Babylon Hotel and Meridian Hotel.
The explosion happened minutes apart.
Authorities have yet to determine the perpetrator of the bombings.
In January this year, Iraqi authorities lifted the curfew on Baghdad but it has resulted in increased bombings. (MNS)
