The Abu Sayda bombing was a chlorine car bombing attack that occurred on 15 May 2007, in an open-air market in the Iraqi Diyala Governorate village of Abu Sayda.[1] The attack killed up to 45 people and wounded 60 more in the Shia village,[2] the highest death toll of all chlorine bombings in Iraq. Iraqi and American military sources initially denied the use of chlorine.[2]
