Description
Images of the aftermath of a hotel siege in Mogadishu after six civilians were killed and 10 wounded in the six-hour siege by Islamist Al-Shabaab militants at a beachside hotel in Somalia's capital, police said. Al-Shabaab claimed responsibility for the attack, which was at Pearl Beach hotel, a popular spot at Lido Beach along Mogadishu's coastline. The assault began just before 8:00 pm on Friday (1700 GMT) when seven attackers stormed the hotel. "Stray bullets were everywhere around us, therefore I had to hide myself to be safe," said eyewitness Hussien Sadat Ju’she. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
