		</div><p>A series of car bombings across Iraq has killed at least 56 people and wounded dozens as the government continued its efforts to combat extremism.</p>
<p>The largest bombing took place in the Shiite-majority town of al-Khales in eastern Diyala province. At least 32 people were killed and 58 wounded when the car bomb tore through a commercial street, a police official said.</p>
<p>In July, Diyala was the scene of one of the deadliest attacks on Iraqi soil in almost a decade when a suicide bomber with the Islamic State group attacked a crowded marketplace, killing 115 people, including women and children.</p>
<p>The province, parts of which were previously under IS rule, has been the scene of multiple attacks in recent months, prompting anti-government protests with citizens demanding tougher security measures.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, in Iraq’s southern Basra province, a senior security official said a car bomb exploded in a busy commercial district of al-Zubair, killing 10 people.</p>
<p>Jabar al-Saadi, head of security for Basra province, said at least 25 people were wounded in the attack in the town 30 miles south west of Basra.</p>
<p>In the capital Baghdad, police said at least 14 people were killed and 25 wounded when a car bomb exploded in the north-eastern neighbourhood of Husseiniya.</p>
<p>Hospital officials corroborated the death tolls.</p>
<p>While no one has claimed responsibility for the attacks, IS regularly targets Shiite neighbourhoods and government installations in an effort to destabilise the Shiite-led government in Baghdad.</p>
