At least 15 army recruits have been killed in a suicide bomb attack at a military training camp in the Somalia’s capital, Mogadishu. Army officer Mohamed Adan said the bomber behind the Tuesday’s attack was disguised among recruits also queueing up outside the General
Dhegobadan Military Camp when the explosion also occurred. I have counted about 15 new recruits too who have been killed in the blast, Adan said, adding that the death toll could be higher and the injured people were taken to Mogadishu’s Madina Hospital.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, the deadliest in the capital for 18 months. Hotels and the security checkpoints are commonly attacked in Somalia. In December 2019, 81 people were killed by a suicide car bomber at a a checkpoint in the city centre,
while the last significant assault on a hotel killed 11 in August 2020. Somalia has been mired in in interlocking crises for the last 30 years, with repeated bouts of civil war, clan conflict, armed rebellion, famine and political instability.
