Bomb attacks in Baghdad kill shoppers as ahead of major Muslim festival BAGHDAD, Iraq At least five people are dead after bombs ripped through crowds of shoppers at a market and bakery stocking up on sweets and other delicacies to celebrate a Muslim holiday. The carnage in Baghdad's oldest and largest marketplace marked the second time in as many days that open-air shopping places have been targeted. There has been a surge in deaths during the Muslim holy fasting month of Ramadan, which ends today for Sunnis. So far this month, an average of about 43 Iraqis have died each day, according to an Associated Press count. That compares to an average daily death toll of about 27 since April 2005. Along with the soaring death toll among Iraqis, 78 U.S. troops have also died this month, surpassing the year's previous high figure of 76 in April.
