Iraqi officials say a car bomb at an outdoor market in a Shiite-dominated Baghdad neighborhood has killed at least 13 people.
A police officer says initial reports show Tuesday's attack in the northeastern Shaab neighborhood was carried out with an explosives-laden car that was parked near the market. He says the explosion also wounded up to 40 people.
A medical official confirmed the casualty figures. Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity as they are not authorized to talk to reporters.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, which bore the hallmarks of the extremist Islamic State group that has been behind recent deadly attacks in the Iraqi capital and beyond.
