MOGADISHU, April 3 (Xinhua) -- At least six people were killed and four others wounded in a suicide bombing in the Somali capital of Mogadishu on Saturday evening.
Ismael Mukhtar Omar, spokesman in the ministry of information, said three women and a child were among those killed when a suicide bomber blew up himself at a restaurant in the vicinity of Shangani of Mogadishu.
"Six people, among them three women and a child, were killed and four others injured this evening when a suicide bomber blew himself up at a tea shop in Shangani neighborhood," Omar told Xinhua over phone.
He said the motive of the suicide bomber had not been established but sources said he could have targeted a police station or a government ministry, which are located near the scene.
The latest attack came hours after Somali National Army (SNA) said its forces killed more than 85 al-Shabab fighters and arrested 15 others in early Saturday's terrorist attacks on two SNA bases in the Lower Shabelle region. Enditem
