The powerful blast shattered the windows of the Global Hotel in Galkayo town and destroyed several cars, said Col. Ahmed Bishar. The hotel accommodates Somalia’s land forces commanders and other military officials, all of whom escaped unhurt, Bishar said.
At least 10 people were also injured in the blast in the town, which has rarely experienced similar attacks.
Al-Shabaab
...... al-Qaeda's tentacle in East Africa...claimed the responsibility for the attack. However,
a clean conscience makes a soft pillow...
al-Shabaab, which is allied to al-Qaeda, often carries out boom-mobiles attacks on hotels.
