BAGHDAD - A series of attacks mostly targeting security forces, including a suicide car bomb at an army base, killed 11 people, officials said, updating a previous toll. In the deadliest of Monday’s incidents, a vehicle packed with explosives was detonated by a suicide attacker in Mosul, killing six soldiers and wounding seven others, according to officials. The blast struck near a military base in the Al-Muthanna area of the city, 350 kilometres north of the capital.
