A suicide truck bombing occurred on 28 October 2017 in Mogadishu, Somalia. Later that day there were two more explosions, one from a suicide bomber's explosive belt.[1] These bombings killed at least 25 people and injured 30.[2][1][3]
The suicide truck bomb was rammed into Nasahablod Two hotel in Mogadishu.[4] Five armed militants subsequently stormed the building afterwards.[1][2][5] A siege ensued and three attackers were killed and the other two arrested.[2]
The Islamic militant group Al-Shabaab claimed responsibility for the attack,[6] which occurred two weeks after they perpetrated the 14 October 2017 Mogadishu bombings.
