The U.S. military in Iraq says 14 people were killed Sunday in two car bomb attacks near a U.S. base in western Baghdad.
A military statement says suicide bombers blew up their explosive-laden vehicles among Iraqis gathered in a parking lot near a checkpoint for the base.
Earlier Sunday, a roadside bomb killed at least four people on a civilian bus in eastern Baghdad. Another roadside bomb attack targeted a checkpoint manned by Interior Ministry forces, killing two people and wounding five.
And the British Defense Ministry announced Sunday that two British soldiers were killed late Saturday in a roadside bomb in the southern city of Basra.
