MUQDISHO, Somalia -- One person has been killed and two others were wounded after a suspected suicide car bomber detonated his explosives-laden vehicle during a hot pursuit by soldiers in the Somali capital, officials said Wednesday Garowe Online reports. Pursuit doesn't get much hotter, does it? Intelligence sources said the car bomber who was on the radar-list has probably detonated his car packed with explosives around the popular Maka Al-mukarramah hotel in Mogadishu. One soldier was killed by the blast and two nearby pedestrians were wounded in the bombing which officials described as 'foiled' one. No group has immediately claimed the responsibility for the blast. |
