Two large car bombs have targeted the education ministry in the Somalia capital, Mogadishu.A police spokesman said there had been casualties.
Reports say one of the car bombs was driven into the building followed by another blast in the same area.
Eyewitness speak of massive damage, blown-out windows and a lot of smoke near the ministry.
The Islamist group al-Shabab frequently carries out such attacks but it has yet to say if it was responsible for today’s explosions.
