Baghdad blasts 'kill at least 38'


At least 38 people have been killed and 75 wounded in two car bomb attacks in central Baghdad, reports say.
The blasts hit the ministry of justice and another government building near the Green Zone, causing severe damage.
They came in quick succession at 1030 local time (0730 GMT), and were followed by sporadic gunfire.
Correspondents say these are largest attacks since 19 August, when truck bombs hit two ministry buildings and killed at least 100 people.
Iraq then blamed foreign fighters and accused Syria of involvement, demanding a UN investigation.
