AVA- At least five people have been killed in a suicide attack that targeted local government offices in Somalia's capital, Mogadishu, which destroyed the building and a school opposite it, Africa News reported.
The blast also blew off the roof of a mosque and damaged houses nearby, as, according to reports, the incident took place in Howlwadag district.
Al-Shabab militant group claimed responsibilty for the attack, which shattered a period of calm in the seaside capital. The al-Qaeda-linked group is fighting to overthrow the UN-backed government in Mogadishu.
