Bombers killed 65 people, many of them young women students, at a Baghdad university on Tuesday on one of the city’s bloodiest days in weeks.

In all, at least 100 were killed in bombings and a shooting in the capital on a day when the United Nations said more than 34,000 Iraqi civilians died in violence last year. Four U.S. soldiers were also killed in a bomb attack in northern Iraq.
