At least seven people are reported to have been killed after a bomb exploded at a school in the Iraqi capital Baghdad.
All the victims are believed to be children, aged between 12 and 14.
Local reports suggest another 41 people were injured in the blast at the primary school in the Sadr City district.
The blast is said to have left a 13-ft diameter crater at the school's entrance with neighbouring homes also sustaining damage.
