In Somalia, four people holding foreign passports were killed by Somali gunmen in an attack against a school in the town of Beledweyne center of the country, while a similar number was killed in a bomb explosion in a cinema hall in the city of Mirka south Mogadishu.
Beledweyne police chief Abdi Aden Adow said two of the dead had British passports and were of Somali origin, while the other two were from Kenya.
Eyewitnesses said that the four foreigners were killed following the storming of gunmen in the city last night freeing prisoners and burning the house of the city’s Governor before their withdrawal from the city.
