MOGADISHU, Somalia — Suicide bombers attacked a police base in Mogadishu on Monday, killing at least seven people, including two children, amid intense urban fighting that gripped the capital for a third day, officials said.
The bombers, in a Toyota truck loaded with explosives and oil containers, blew up the vehicle Monday morning at a police training center in Mogadishu’s Hamarjajab district, close to the police academy, knocking down houses and injuring dozens of people.
The al-Shabab, an Islamist group that has declared allegiance to al-Qaeda, claimed responsibility for the attack.
