The Islamist group Al-Shabab let a car bomb explode in front of a popular restaurant in the capital city in Somalia. The restaurant is near the central hotel and often visited by politicians. In the attack 11 people died and more got hurt. This was not the fist bombing at this place though. In February 20 people were killed because of a bombing at the same hotel. The Al-Qaeda linked group wants the African union to pull back their forces and leave Somalia. Al- Shabab got pushed out off the cities and most of their territory but they still rule in some of the rural areas.
