2 killed during attack on AU force in Somalia

At least two civilians were killed during an attack on African Union peacekeepers by an extremist Islamic group in the Somali capital, witnesses said on Sunday.
Al-Shabab, an extremist Islamic group, attacked two AU bases late Saturday. The troops retaliated, leading to heavy fighting, said Mohamed Hussein, a resident in the area where the attack happened.
"I saw two dead men killed by mortar rounds," Hussein said.
Fadumo Ali, a nurse at Medina hospital, said nine civilians wounded in the attack were brought to her hospital. more..http://www.taiwannews.com.tw/etn/news_content.php?id=842610&lang=eng_news&cate_img=1037.jpg&cate_rss=General
