Baghdad prepares for potential Eid attacks

Baghdad's Operations Command has decided to close certain outlets in the Iraqi capital on early Wednesday in preparation for Eid al-Fitr. The Division prevented the entry of vehicles and imposed a curfew in the Abu-Ghareib region, after receiving terrorist related information. A source in Iraq's interior ministry told Arab Today that the Operations Command Division's decision came in the framework of preventing any potential attacks from armed groups as Eid al-Fitr draws near. The source added that security forces have intensified their presence in the Iraqi capital.
