A Somalia government representative has stated that the death toll in a car bombing at a security checkpoint in Mogadishu is no less than 30 and it likely will increase.
He informed The Associated Press that over 60 people were injured and they are still being hospitalized.
It was one of the deadliest attacks in Mogadishu in recent times.
There is no claim of responsibility for the attack right now, that police state targeted a tax collection center.
Somalia has been going through civil war since the 1980s. In general, the al-Qaida-linked al-Shabab group often conducts such attacks.
