A suspected car bomb killed at
least 10 people when it exploded at a police checkpoint next to
a busy market in the Somali capital Mogadishu on Saturday,
police and witnesses said.
"The whole market is ruined and people perished. The death
toll is sure to rise," Colonel Abdikadir Farah, a police
officer, told Reuters, saying at least 10 people had been
confirmed dead so far, while a dozen more were wounded.
Reuters witnesses also counted at least 10 bodies at the
scene.
