Car Bomb Wounds At Least Two In Somali Capital
A witness says at least people were wounded in Mogadishu after an explosive device fitted into to their luxury car exploded on the main Makka Al-Mukarama road on Wednesday.
The IED-attached vehicle went off near Haji Pasto junction along the busy road of Maka Al-Mukarama, which links the Airport to the Presidential Palace in Mogadishu.
The blast ripped through the private car, leaving the occupants wounded who are yet to be identified. Police cordoned off the scene and began an investigation into the incident.
No group has so far claimed the responsibility for the blast which would be the first since the end of the holy month of Ramadan.
The explosion comes on the heel of the reopening of the city’s roads following a presidential order after the visit by the Ethiopian PM Abiy Ahmed last Saturday.
