Baghdad

Iraqi women walk past the scene where a blast took place at Kre’at in Baghdad, Iraq, 07 March 2010. A wave of attacks battered Iraq as millions of voters went to the polls 07 March for a parliamentary election seen as a key test of Iraq’s stability ahead of US troops’ withdrawal next year. Despite the attacks, voters reported heavy turnout in polls that Iraq’s electoral commission expects could see 18.9 million votes cast around the country.
