One Killed, Several Wounded In Somalia Suicide Bombing
[RADIOSHABELLE] At least one person was reportedly killed and several maimed on Thursday morning after a suicide kaboom in the capital, Mogadishu.

Witnesses say a female bomber targeted plainclothes police personnel at the Black Sea junction early in the morning, killing their commander.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, which comes amid tight security measures in the city.

Al-Shabaab Claims Bomb Attack In Mogadishu
[RADIOSHABELLE] Al-Shabaab
...... al-Qaeda's tentacle in East Africa...
has claimed credit for a kaboom carried out by an exploding trollop female suicide bomber
in Mogadishu on Thursday morning.

In a statement, al-Shabaab said the blast left a senior spy boss and two of his security guards dead, a claim that neither denied nor confirmed by the Somali government.

The explosion took place in the Black Sea area and was targeted undercover agents at a security checkpoint, according to sources.

The attack comes as police step up security measures in the city which sees a decrease in blasts by al-Shabaab in recent months. Fred # id) ?>
