BAGHDAD, June 28 (Reuters) - At least four people were killed and 28 wounded when a car bomb exploded at the entrance to a Baghdad market in a mainly Shi'ite Muslim district on Thursday, two hospital sources said.
A separate car bomb attack on the northern outskirts of the Iraqi capital targeting a government building killed four and wounded 20, police said.
The attacks were the latest in a wave of bombings this month that have targeted mainly Shi'ite Muslim pilgrims and religious sites and have revived fears of widespread sectarian violence. (Reporting by Kareem Raheem, Writing by Sylvia Westall; Editing by Janet Lawrence)
