SOMALIA-UNREST

A soldier looks at the bodies of six alleged Shebab rebels on August 31, 2014 in a street of Mogadishu after they carried out a major car bomb and gun attack against an intelligence headquarters and detention facility in the center of the Somali capital, which police said left at least seven militants dead. Police and witnesses said a car bomb was detonated outside the National Intelligence Center and was followed by a raid by gunmen disguised in national army uniforms -- a style of attack bearing all the hallmarks of the Al-Qaeda-linked Islamist Shebab militia. The assault came a day after Somalia's national army and African Union forces said they had captured a Shebab stronghold as part of a joint offensive aimed at capturing key ports from the Islamist fighters and cutting off a key source of revenue for the rebels.
