MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) - Two separate explosions killed at least five civilians in the Somali capital, where the government is struggling to contain a lethal insurgency, witnesses said Friday.
In one blast late Thursday, a gunman lobbed a hand grenade at a tea shop in the Hurwa district, a hotbed of support for an Islamic group that ruled much of southern Somalia for six months last year.
"The bomb went off among dozens of men," said Muhiyadin Ga'amey, a witness. Three people died and five were wounded, he said.
