A series of attacks across Iraq on Sunday killed 15 people, including a random shooting and the killing of a judge, authorities said.

The surge in the bloodshed is raising fears of a return to the widespread killing that pushed the country to the brink of civil war after the 2003 U.S.-led invasion.
