Ethiopian troops arrive in MogadishuApril 21, 2007Somalia - Mortar bombs and Katyusha rockets slammed into markets and neighborhoods in Somalia's capital city Saturday, leaving at least six dead. 
According to Somali journalist Mohamed Amiin, a civilian minibus was struck by the shelling, killing an unspecified number of passengers. One witness told Amiin the blast was so powerful body parts could be seen scattered in the street. The violence is part of an ongoing battle between Ethiopian troops and Islamic insurgents. Fighting has intensified in the past two days, as more Ethiopian troops arrived Friday in Mogadishu to suppress the insurgency. © AlaskaReport News |
