The bomber struck shortly after noon in the Iraqi capital, Kadmiya.
It was initially reported that the explosion was caused by a gas cylinder, but on Friday morning, the Iraqi authorities “corrected”, citing an unknown cause.

The bomber struck near the mosque of Imam Musa al-Qadim and Imam Mohammed al-Jawad, the seventh and ninth imams of Shiite Islam, respectively.
