At least 17 explosions occurred in the attacks, 48 hours after the 2010 Baghdad church massacre[12] where 58 people were killed by a suicide bomber in a Baghdad church.[13] While the Islamic State of Iraq did not officially claim responsibility for the attack, a U.S. military spokesperson alleged that ISI-affiliated fighters might have carried out the attacks.[14] The majority of the explosions occurred in populated areas, including near restaurants.[15] At least 15 were killed in one attack, in Sadr City.[citation needed]
