A suicide bombing occurred in Iraq on 24 November 2016[2] when a truck bomb exploded at a petrol station in Hillah, some 100 kilometers (62 miles) from southern Baghdad, killing at least 125 people and injuring many others.
Shia pilgrims were en route back to Iran after the 2016 Arba'een Pilgrimage.[3][4][5] Besides Iranians, people from Basra and Nasiriyah were also killed in the attack.[6][7]
The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant claimed responsibility for it.
