A car bomb exploded in Sadr, a Shiite neighbourhood of the Iraqi capital Baghdad, killing at least five people.

More than a dozen people were wounded by the blast, which struck a bus and a taxi rank.

Abu Ali, whose house was hit, said: "I wasn't at home, but I heard an explosion, so I came back here and was told that my children were in hospital. You can see the destruction."
