As reported by CNN:
Two mentally disabled women were strapped with explosives today and sent into busy Baghdad markets, where they were blown up by remote control, a top Iraqi government official said. The bombs killed at least 98 people and wounded more than 200 at two popular pet markets.

Casualties from the bombings total at least 224 with 517 wounded.
