At least eight people were killed and 23 others injured in Somalia's capital on Thursday when a suicide attack targeted a U.N. security convoy, using a vehicle laden with explosives.
The huge explosion was heard throughout the city and videos shared on social media showed a plume of smoke billowing into the sky.
Al-Shabaab claimed responsibility for the attack, stating it has targeted convoy escorting “white officers” from Gen. Gordon military academy to Halane base.
On the other hand, Somali officials said that a convoy of Duguf security services escorting UN officials were targeted. (ILKHA)
