Back-to-back suicide bombings have killed at least 60 people outside the most important Shiite shrine in the Iraqi capital of Baghdad.

The two bombers detonated explosive belts within minutes of each other, near separate gates of the tomb of prominent Shiite saint Imam Mousa al-Kazim. The bombers struck shortly before the start of Friday prayers, as worshippers streamed into the mosque in the northern neighborhood of Kazimiyah.

Among the dead are 25 Iranian pilgrims. Officials say at least 125 people, including 80 Iranians, were injured in the blast.
