Suicide bombers have killed at least 47 people and wounded about 130 in attacks on crowds in the Iraqi capital Baghdad and the northern city of Kirkuk.

Three blasts in Baghdad killed at least 25 Shia Muslim pilgrims heading for the city's Kadhimiya shrine.

The attacks, which wounded about 52 people, were carried out by women suicide bombers, police said.

In Kirkuk, a suicide bomber targeted a crowd of Kurdish protesters, killing at least 22 and injuring at least 80.

The northern city of Kirkuk is disputed between Kurds, Arabs and Turkomans.

Demonstrators were protesting at a proposed law on local elections which has raised tensions there.
