 MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) - Fighting between Ethiopian troops and insurgents left at least 12 people dead in Somalia's capital Thursday, while a suicide car bomb exploded at an Ethiopian army base, officials and witnesses said.
Fighting in Mogadishu has killed hundreds of people since Ethiopian forces helped Somalia's fragile interim government oust an Islamic militia in December. Remnants of the Islamic group have vowed to wage an Iraq-style insurgency.
More than 200,000 people have fled Mogadishu since February, the U.N. refugee agency said.
