Car bomb near Baghdad mosque kills at least 10

BAGHDAD, Apr 3 (Reuters) A car bomb killed at least 10 people near a Shi'ite mosque in Baghdad today, Interior Ministry sources said.

The blast in the Shaab district of Baghdad also wounded at least 30 people, the sources said.

Sectarian violence has been rising since the bombing of a Shi'ite shrine on February 22 touched off reprisals and pushed Iraq closer than ever to civil war.
