A series of car bomb attacks on Monday killed 34 to 40 people in Baghdad (search), shattering what should have been a solemn day as Iraq began observing the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
About 12 people were killed at the International Committee of the Red Cross building in central Baghdad and 27 others were slain in attacks on four police stations. Most of the victims were Iraqis. The U.S. military said one American soldier was killed in one of the police station attacks.
