Multiple attacks in Baghdad killed at least 15 people and wounded scores more on Sunday, a stark reminder of Iraq's continuing instability amid a political crisis that is heaping pressure on Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi.

A suicide bombing outside a funeral in Abu Ghraib on the outskirts of the capital killed five people including two policemen, Iraqi officials said. Another 14 people were wounded. A further 10 people were killed and 35 were wounded by improvised explosive devices across the city, the officials said.

No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attacks.
