Attacks around the ministerial and US embassy compound are rare
US military officials in Iraq say a roadside bomb has killed two civilians in the centre of Baghdad.
The US military said three other people were injured by the explosion near the heavily defended Green Zone housing the US embassy and government ministries.
Correspondents say it is the biggest attack there for weeks after a series of army operations to restore security.
The military also said three US soldiers were killed in separate attacks on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Two soldiers were killed by a roadside bomb in Diyala province and a third was shot dead in the city of Mosul.
