(SomaliNet) Unidentified gunmen have attacked on Friday night Global hotel in east of the Somalia capital Mogadishu where some of the Ethiopian military officers are based. An eyewitness told Somalinet that the attack took place around 7:40pm local time when unknown militia fired a rocket propelled grenade at the hotel near the compound of nation security agency. “It was a single RPG rocket that slammed on the roof of the Hotel’s gate then the attackers and the bodyguards of the hotel exchanged gunfire. It caused no casualty,” said Abdi Shino, one of the residents who was standing outside of the hotel at the time of the attack. No casualty has been reported so far. Global hotel is privately owned and commercial hotel, which locates in Abdiaziz neighborhood, east of the Somalia capital Mogadishu, where the government is dominant. The latest attack is part of waves of guerilla-style attack launched by supporters of the ousted Islamists. The attack came hours after new Islamist group called ‘Somali people’s Insurgence Movement’ claimed the responsibility for the attacks in the capital aimed at the positions of the interim government and Ethiopian forces.
