The 3 March 2010 Baqubah bombings were a series of three bombings in Baqubah, Iraq, on 3 March 2010 that killed at least 33 people and injured 55 others.[2][3] Baqubah, a mixed Sunni and Shia town, is the capital of Diyala Governorate, approximately 40 miles (64 km) north of the country's capital, Baghdad.[4]
The bombings occurred in the lead-up to the parliamentary elections scheduled for 7 March 2010.[5][6] At 9:45 am local time, a car bomb was detonated near a police station in the western part of the city. A few moments later, approximately 100 yards (91 m) away,[1] another car bomb was detonated near the provincial building.[7] A suicide bomber later detonated a bomb at the hospital where some of the wounded were being treated.[8] The hospital bomber posed as a police lieutenant and rode an ambulance to the hospital.[1][9] A fourth bomb was found near the hospital and defused.[10]
After the bombings, a full curfew was imposed on the city of Baqubah, barring even pedestrians.[11] Among the dead were ten policemen,[12] and Dr. Ali al-Timimi, head of Diyala Governorate's health department.[13]
No organization has claimed responsibility for carrying out the bombings. The Islamic State of Iraq organization had previously promised to disrupt the elections on 7 March.[14] Authorities, both American and Iraqi, have reportedly warned that more attacks could occur before, and even after the elections.[1] Despite the concerns, early voting began, as scheduled, the morning of 4 March.[15]
