On 18 February 2007, three car bombs exploded in predominantly Shia areas of Baghdad, killing at least 63 people and injuring more than 120. The bombings occurred despite a huge military offense, led by US and Iraqi troops.
One of the killed, Ehab Karim, was a midfield footballer for Al Sinaa.[1][2]
