\"SOMALIA:<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

An attack carried out by a suicide bomber who blew himself up inside a restaurant in Somalia\u2019s capital, Mogadishu, on Wednesday, has left three people dead and seven others seriously injured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe target of the suicide bomber<\/a> was civilians sitting at the (Blue Sky) restaurant. He walked [among] them and detonated himself killing three civilians and wounding seven others,\u201d Information Ministry spokesman Ismail Mukhtar Omar said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Witnesses said security forces cordoned off the scene after the blast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Mogadishu resident who witnessed the incident said; \u201cThe blast was very heavy, and I saw people rushed to hospital. Some of them were seriously wounded.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The deadly attack has not yet been claimed<\/a> by any group as at the time of filing in this report but al-Shabab, which is affiliated to al-Qaeda, has often conducted similar attacks in the city.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
