Baghdad - Polling stations in several towns in Iraq's so-called Triangle of Death south of Baghdad have not opened four hours after nationwide voting started on Sunday, the country's electoral commission said.

"In Latifiyah, Mahmudiyah and Yusufiyah, polling stations have not yet opened their doors," commission spokesperson Farid Ayar told reporters.

"As you know, Latifiyah, Mahmudiyah and Yusufiyah are hotspots. We have allowed residents of these areas to vote in the nearest polling station" to the towns, said another member of the commission.
