MOGADISHU (Reuters) – At least ten people died after a truck bomb exploded at a checkpoint in the central Somalia town of Beledweyne, a police officer said on Saturday.
“So far I have seen 10 dead people including soldiers and civilians and over a dozen others injured, but the death toll is sure to rise,” Major Ahmed Aden told Reuters.
