Explosions near Baghdad security conference

Security
(Reuters) Two blasts that sounded like mortars rocked the building where delegates from regional and world powers were meeting in Baghdad to discuss stabilising Iraq, Reuters witnesses said. The blasts appeared to be mortars which landed in an area between the Rasheed Hotel, inside the Green Zone, and the Foreign Ministry, where the conference is being held, one of the witnesses said. There was no immediate word on casualties. Mortars frequently land in the Green Zone, usually without causing casualties.
