Iraq Attacks Kill 26 People

Attacks in Iraq, including a spate of bombings in Baghdad, killed 26 people on Thursday, officials said, the latest in a spike in violence that has sparked fears of all-out sectarian war.

The unrest pushed the overall number of people killed so far in May above 600, by far the deadliest month in Iraq in at least a year, according to Agence France Presse figures based on information from security and medical officials.
