Roadside Explosions in Mogadishu Kill 5, Injure 8

The blasts, which occurred where young people had gathered, highlight ongoing violence in Somalia's capital.

The explosions took place on Saturday in the Kahda district of Mogadishu.
An explosive device was planted at a location where many young people were taking photos.
A second explosion occurred when rescuers arrived, causing additional casualties.
No group has claimed responsibility, but al-Shabab is suspected due to its history of similar attacks.
The incident follows a deadly explosion weeks ago that killed over 30 people at a beach in Somalia.
