A suicide bomb attack in Baghdad on Sunday has killed 165 people, interior ministry officials have said.

So-called Islamic State (IS) has claimed responsibility for the attack.

The blast, which injured 225 others, is believed to be the deadliest single bomb attack in Iraq since 2007.

Hugh Sykes spoke to people at the bomb site about whether responsibility for the attack should stretch back to the British and American invasion in 2003.
