At least a civilian was killed and four others wounded in the fourth car bomb attack in the Iraqi capital on Wednesday, an Interior Ministry source said.
"A car bomb parking in the Kendi thoroughfare in Harthiyah neighborhood detonated in the afternoon and killed at least a civilian and wounded four others," the source told Xinhua on condition of anonymity.
The blast damaged several nearby shops and buildings, the source said.
Earlier in the day, three car bombs, including two suicide bombs, detonated in Baghdad, killing a total of 73 people and wounding more than 100 others.
Daily bombings and sectarian violence continued infesting Baghdad streets despite a more-than-five-month U.S. and Iraqi security plan aiming at putting rampant violence under control.
