A truck bomb attack in Baghdad against an Iranian armed exile organization opposed to the Tehran government killed seven people, including one Iraqi, and wounded more than 20 others, officials of the group said. Officials of the People’s Moujahedeen said four of its members died immediately and two more in a hospital. All were traveling in a bus hit by the blast from a pickup truck loaded with explosives, the officials said. An Iraqi civilian was also killed on a separate bus caught by the bomb. It was the second attack this week against the People’s Moujahedeen. On Sunday the group said that two bombs exploded near its headquarters in Baghdad but caused no casualties.
