Police officials say a sticky bomb attached to a pickup truck carrying Shiite militiamen exploded in Baghdad's southeastern suburb of Zafaraniya, killing two militiamen.

Earlier Thursday, a blast at a commercial street in Baghdad's western district of Bayaa killed three people and wounded nine. And a bomb near an outdoor market killed two people in Baghdad's western al-Furat suburb.

The officials say that a bomb went off near a cafe on Thursday night in the town of Madain, just south of Baghdad, killing two people and wounding 11.
