“A deadly car bomb exploded close to the presidential palace in Somalia’s capital Mogadishu on Monday, police said. ‘So far, we know five soldiers died and over a dozen were wounded,’ Ali Hussein, a police officer, told Reuters, adding that the attack might have been aimed at a United Nations convoy that left the palace just before the blast. Hussein said it was a suicide attack.”
