Gunmen blew up a car bomb, sprayed gunfire in a crowded area and took hostages in a shopping mall in eastern Baghdad on Monday, killing at least ten people, police said.
There are 50-75 people inside the mall, taken as hostages by the gunmen, reports said.
The gunmen were still holed up in the shopping centre in Baghdad Al Jadida, a police colonel said, adding that it was feared the attackers were wearing suicide belts.
A hospital official confirmed the death toll and said 25 people were also reported to have been wounded in the attack.
"They are inside the Zahrat Baghdad mall. When the security forces got too close, they killed three hostages," a police official said.
"We are taking a cautious approach now. We want this attack to end with the lowest possible number of casualties," the official said.
