MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) - An African Union delegation was in Somalia's capital Sunday to discuss the deployment of international peacekeepers as government troops expanded a house-to-house search for weapons in one of the world's most dangerous and heavily armed cities.
Mohamed Foum, the AU's special representative for Somalia, said nine delegates arrived in Mogadishu on Saturday for meetings with leaders of the U.N.-supported transitional government in this chaotic Horn of Africa nation.
"A team has gone to take a look and to get information that will help us devise a plan for peacekeepers," Foum said.
