DHAKA, Bangladesh (Dec. 7) - Bombs exploded simultaneously Saturday at three movie houses in northern Bangladesh, killing at least 15 people and wounding at least 200 others, a news report said.

The movie houses were filled because of Islamic Eid-ul-Fitr festival marking the end of the Ramadan month of fasting.

The explosions occurred in Mymensingh town, 70 miles north of the capital, Dhaka, the United News of Bangladesh reported.

The report said the death toll was likely to increase.

One bomb exploded when a large number of people were coming out of a movie theater after the evening show. Two other bombs went off at two other theaters, where the films were in progress.
