A suspected suicide bombing at a teashop near the police academy in Mogadishu has resulted in multiple casualties.
Thursday’s explosion occurred in a busy area, typically frequented by both civilians and security personnel.
Initial reports indicate significant injuries, though the exact number of casualties is still being assessed.
Authorities are currently investigating the incident, and no group has yet claimed responsibility.
However, Al-Shabaab has been known to target such locations in the past.
Emergency services have responded, and the area has been cordoned off as the situation develops.
