Two bombs hit a market in town of Madaen, killing at least five.

The city of Mahmudiyya was struck by three blasts, one of them caused by a rocket attack on a small hospital.

An earlier car bomb in the city of Najaf, which is holy to Shia Muslims, left 23 people injured, a local health official said.

Another explosion earlier in the day targeted a police station in the northern city of Mosul.

The blasts in Madaen and Mahmudiyya came as people prepared to break their Ramadan fast.

The attack in Mahmudiyya killed a policeman guarding the hospital site.
