At least 29 people have been killed in two suicide bombings in the Somali capital Mogadishu. Four attackers were among the dead. Police say 70 other people were injured on Saturday, some of them in critical condition.
The attacks were carried out in the presence of the East African country’s Ministry of Education, a police spokesman said. Most of the victims are civilians. The Islamist terrorist militia Al-Shabaab has claimed responsibility for the attack.
The terrorists control large parts of central and southern Somalia. They regularly attack civilians, government officials, businessmen and journalists.
The government in Mogadishu has been conducting a military offensive against al-Shabaab for several months. With the support of armed clans and civilians, the Somali military has recently been able to capture large amounts of territory.
Somalia in the Horn of Africa is one of the poorest countries in the world.
