Somali journalist injured in car bomb blast in Mogadishu
2018-12-06
[RADIOSHABELLE] A prominent Somali journalist, Ismail Sheikh Khalifa was maimed after a bomb concealed under the sear of his private car went kaboom! in the heart of Mogadishu on Tuesday.

Khalifa who worked as a managing director of Star FM Radio’s Mogadishu Bureau is at death's door after sustaining series wounds in the boom-mobile kaboom.

The motive behind the attempt on his life and who orchestrated the liquidation bid remains unclear as the Somali police are yet to comment on the incident.

Al-Shabaab
... the personification of Somali state failure...
in the past targeted senior government officials and media workers with such kabooms in Mogadishu, the capital of the conflict-recovering Horn of Africa nation.
