At least one person has died and seven injured in double blasts in Somalia’s capital of Mogadishu on Friday, police said.
A bomber blew himself up inside a popular seafront restaurant and another bomb exploded at its entrance.
Last month, a blast ripped through the same area, killing a security guard. That swath of the city is frequented by foreigners. Somalia and its capital have long been engulfed in civil strife between a weak government and Islamist militants.
