NAYD Somalia/Somaliland

The Somali Government strongly condemns a suicide bomber that killed 4 people and injured over 10, including a member of the Somali parliament and three journalists at an event in the National Theatre that marked the 28th anniversary of the Somali National Television.

Somalia's Olympic committee and football heads are among 10 people killed in a suicide blast in Mogadishu.

Somali PM Abdiweli Mohamed Ali was also present when the attacker struck the newly re-opened national theatre, but he told the BBC he was unhurt.

Al-Shabab militants say they carried out the bombing.
