On Monday, insurgents carried out at least six car bomb attacks across Iraq, killing at least 23 people.
The deadliest attack occurred in the Kurdish city of Arbil, where a suicide bomber dressed as a policeman drove into a crowd of Iraqi police recruits, killing 13 of them and wounding 100 others.
At least 10 other people were killed in separate attacks in Baghdad and the oil city of Kirkuk, north of the capital.
