A heavy and load explosion occurred on Tuesday near the former defense compound in south of Mogadishu where based by the Ethiopian forces – as insurgency escalates in recent weeks. The explosion which happened around 3:00pm local time was targeted on a convoy belonged by the Ethiopian forces. It is hard to find out the casualty on the Ethiopian forces here in Mogadishu. Witnesses told Somalinet that the blast was caused by a roadside bomb which hit one of the convoy trucks but there is no immediate casualty on the soldiers. The area of the blast was cordoned by the Ethiopian forces and began arresting many people.

The Ethiopian forces in Mogadishu are always target for the attacks by the insurgents. Since the local insurgents were defeated in the capital by the allied forces of Somalia and Ethiopia last month, they began hit and run attacks including suicide bombing.
