The suicide bomber struck shortly after midnight, when families and young people were out on the streets in the central district of Karrada, after breaking their daylight fast for the holy month of Ramadan. Most of the victims were inside a multi-story shopping and amusement mall, where dozens burned to death or suffocated, officials said.
