Two killed in bomb blast in central Somalia
[Garowe] Two people died and several others were maimed when an improvised bomb (IED) detonated at a restaurant in a cop shoppe in Somalia's central town of Baledweyne, local police confirmed on Saturday.

The attack was said to have occurred as senior government officials were staying at the restaurant in central Somalia.

"The blast hit the restaurant, killing two people, while several others sustained injuries," said a police officer who requested anonymity.

"The blast was huge," said a witness, adding that Feer-Feer district mayor was among the two killed in the attack.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the latest attack.
