Simultaneous attacks aimed at Federal troops in Mogadishu
2013-05-15
[Shabelle] simultaneous land mine attacks aimed at federal government troops occurred early morning near the ministry of defense offices in Mogadishu.

Eye witness confirmed to Shabelle radio that an kaboom went off at a control check point near the ministry offices. He added that after the kaboom, government troops arrived at the scene in large numbers, minutes later; other land mine kabooms went off simultaneously causing death and injury casualties.

However,
ars longa, vita brevis...
there are no clear statements released by the government about the kabooms.

Government troops have secured the area and have closed the factory road which is the main road which passes by the defense ministry.
