A car bombing by al-Qaeda-linked militants killed at least seven people in Somalia’s capital, Mogadishu, a police officer said.
At least nine others were wounded in the blast near a police checkpoint and hotel in the city’s K4 neighbourhood, officer Ilkase Abdi said by phone from the scene.
Al-Shabaab took responsibility for the attack in a statement to Radio Andalus, a broadcaster that supports the extremists more than decade-long insurgency in the Horn of Africa nation.
