Woyanne Troops Killed at Least 8 in Mogadishu

June 20th, 2007 |

By VOA News

Witnesses in Somalia’s capital say Ethiopian [Woyanne] troops shot and killed at least eight people late Tuesday, following a roadside bomb attack.

The witnesses say the bomb hit a [Woyanne] military convoy, damaging a truck and causing an unknown number of casualties.

They say after the blast, [Woyanne] troops opened fire on a minibus, killing two passengers, and shot several youths in the area, including three brothers.

Attacks on Somali government officials and their [Woyanne] allies have increased in recent weeks despite a government claim of victory over Islamist insurgents in late April.

Some information for this report was provided by AFP and AP.
