(CNN) -- At least 41 people were killed and 108 others wounded Tuesday morning when a suicide bomber detonated his explosives-laden vest in central Baghdad as men were queuing up outside an Iraqi army recruitment center, police said.

The attack took place in the Bab al-Moudham commercial area.

The Iraqi government has been pushing to increase security as the United States is in the final stages to draw out 50,000 troops by the end of this month.

Recruitment centers have regularly come under attack in recent months.
