Islamic State claims responsibility for the deadly attacks
At least 91 people were killed on Sunday in two bombings in the Iraqi capital, including a large-scale attack claimed by the Islamic State group that killed 86 people - among them 15 children - in a central shopping district, officials said.
The bombings demonstrated the extremists' ability to mount significant attacks despite major battlefield losses, including the city of Fallujah, which was declared "fully liberated" from IS just over a week ago.
