add video playlist Boston Marathon Explosions. A pair of explosions rocked the finish line at the Boston Marathon on Monday afternoon, injuring at least a half-dozen people, a CNN producer at the scene said. The blasts occurred a few seconds apart, shrouding downtown Boston's Copley Square in smoke. Paramedics were treating several victims at the scene, and police ordered onlookers to back away from the area, CNN Producer Matt Frucci reported. The explosions occurred about 2:45 p.m., about an hour after the first runners had crossed the finish line, Frucci said.

A 7.5 magnitude earthquake has rocked Iran\'s southeastern province of Sistan and Baluchestan near the border with Pakistan. The tremor was powerful enough to be felt as far away as New Delhi, India, where it rocked tall buildings. It was also felt in the Persian Gulf\'s littoral states of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

North Korea War On US: Is Obama To Blame?

The free world\'s media report on a very different North Korea to that seen on American TV.

In this report, many international respected TV channels queation America\'s seemingly 2-faced attitude to North Korea, pointing out, for example, that Obama spends billions on Pakistan, a much more dangerous country.

So, is Obama to blame for the impending attacks on American soil by North Korea?

In Venezuela\'s capital Caracas police have fired tear gas to disperse crowds protesting the official results of the presidential election. It came after Venezuela\'s electoral body rejected calls for a recount of Sunday\'s vote - that saw Hugo Chavez\'s hand-picked successor win by a razor-thin majority.

Terrorists cause rush hour chaos across the Middle Eastern country in an attempt to disrupt the first polls since US troops left.Terrorists set off 18 bombs around Iraq, killing up to 27 and injuring hundreds, as they attempted to derail elections.

The blasts came during morning rush hour on Monday amid tightened security ahead of the country\'s first polls since the US troop withdrawal in December 2011.

Reports varied as to the number killed with some saying 19 and others 27. Almost 200 people were said to have been injured.

Analysts said the blasts raised questions about the credibility of the April 20 vote, which is seen as a key test of Iraq\'s stability and its security forces\' capabilities.

A total of 14 election hopefuls have already been murdered in other pre-election violence.

Officials said 18 car bombs exploded on Monday morning; in Baghdad, the northern cities of Kirkuk, Tuz Khurmatu and Tikrit, the central city of Samarra, and Hilla and Nasiriyah, south of Baghdad.

Three roadside bombs also hit Baquba, north of the capital.

No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attacks, but Sunni militants linked to Al-Qaeda, are known to frequently attack both government targets and civilians in a bid to destabilise the country.

Some have reportedly sought to intimidate candidates and election officials ahead of polls.

The deadliest attacks were in Baghdad, where six car bombs struck in five neighbourhoods across the capital despite tougher checkpoint searches and heightened security.

Eight people were killed and 48 wounded in the capital, security and medical officials said.

In Tuz Khurmatu, which lies 175 kilometres (110 miles) north of Baghdad, six people were killed and 60 wounded by three near-simultaneous car bombs, according to a provincial council member and a doctor.

And in Kirkuk, four people were killed and 19 wounded by another trio of car bombs, provincial health chief Sadiq Omar Rasul said.

Explosions elsewhere in Iraq killed one person and wounded 64 people.

Kirkuk and Tuz Khurmatu lie at the centre of a tract of disputed territory that stretches from Iraq\'s eastern border with Iran to its western frontier with Syria.

The swathe of land is claimed by both the mostly-Arab government in Baghdad and the autonomous Kurdistan region in the north of Iraq.

The dispute is often cited by officials and diplomats as the biggest long-term threat to Iraq\'s stability.

Soldiers and policemen cast their ballots for the provincial elections on Saturday, a week ahead of the main vote, the country\'s first since March 2010 parliamentary polls. It is also the first election since US troops withdrew from Iraq in December 2011.

The election also comes amid a long-running crisis between Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki and several of his previous government partners.

There are also fears that the conflict in Syria has the potential to spread to Iraq.

More than 8,000 candidates are standing in the elections, with 378 seats on provincial councils up for grabs. An estimated 16.2 million Iraqis are eligible to vote, among them about 650,000 members of the security forces.

Although security has markedly improved since the height of civil strife in Iraq in 2006-2007, 271 people were killed in March, making it the deadliest month since August, according to figures from newswire AFP.

Iraq Bombings: Up To 31 Killed In 18 Blasts

Terrorists cause rush hour chaos across the Middle Eastern country in an attempt to disrupt the first polls since US troops left.Terrorists set off 18 bombs around Iraq, killing up to 27 and injuring hundreds, as they attempted to derail elections. The blasts came during morning rush hour on Monday amid tightened security ahead of the country's first polls since the US troop withdrawal in December 2011. Reports varied as to the number killed with some saying 19 and others 27. Almost 200 people were said to have been injured. Analysts said the blasts raised questions about the credibility of the April 20 vote, which is seen as a key test of Iraq's stability and its security forces' capabilities. A total of 14 election hopefuls have already been murdered in other pre-election violence. Officials said 18 car bombs exploded on Monday morning; in Baghdad, the northern cities of Kirkuk, Tuz Khurmatu and Tikrit, the central city of Samarra, and Hilla and Nasiriyah, south of Baghdad. Three roadside bombs also hit Baquba, north of the capital. No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attacks, but Sunni militants linked to Al-Qaeda, are known to frequently attack both government targets and civilians in a bid to destabilise the country. Some have reportedly sought to intimidate candidates and election officials ahead of polls. The deadliest attacks were in Baghdad, where six car bombs struck in five neighbourhoods across the capital despite tougher checkpoint searches and heightened security. Eight people were killed and 48 wounded in the capital, security and medical officials said. In Tuz Khurmatu, which lies 175 kilometres (110 miles) north of Baghdad, six people were killed and 60 wounded by three near-simultaneous car bombs, according to a provincial council member and a doctor. And in Kirkuk, four people were killed and 19 wounded by another trio of car bombs, provincial health chief Sadiq Omar Rasul said. Explosions elsewhere in Iraq killed one person and wounded 64 people. Kirkuk and Tuz Khurmatu lie at the centre of a tract of disputed territory that stretches from Iraq's eastern border with Iran to its western frontier with Syria. The swathe of land is claimed by both the mostly-Arab government in Baghdad and the autonomous Kurdistan region in the north of Iraq. The dispute is often cited by officials and diplomats as the biggest long-term threat to Iraq's stability. Soldiers and policemen cast their ballots for the provincial elections on Saturday, a week ahead of the main vote, the country's first since March 2010 parliamentary polls. It is also the first election since US troops withdrew from Iraq in December 2011. The election also comes amid a long-running crisis between Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki and several of his previous government partners. There are also fears that the conflict in Syria has the potential to spread to Iraq. More than 8,000 candidates are standing in the elections, with 378 seats on provincial councils up for grabs. An estimated 16.2 million Iraqis are eligible to vote, among them about 650,000 members of the security forces. Although security has markedly improved since the height of civil strife in Iraq in 2006-2007, 271 people were killed in March, making it the deadliest month since August, according to figures from newswire AFP. جيرات العراق: مقتل ما يصل الى 27 في 18 انفجارات Irak'ta Bombalı Saldırılar: 27 Up To 18 patlamalar sırasında ölen Atentados en Irak: hasta 27 muertos en 18 explosiones Atentados no Iraque: até 27 Mortos Em 18 Explosões İraqda bombalı: 27 qədər 18 yok edilmesi HƏLAK Attentati in Iraq: fino a 27 Ucciso In 18 Blasts
