A bomb hidden in a doctor’s car exploded in a hospital parking lot in the Somali capital Wednesday, killing the doctor and a nurse in a rare attack targeting health facilities in the war-torn country, AP quoted a nurse at the scene as saying.
The explosion happened at Keysaney Hospital, a facility run by the Somali Red Crescent Society and the International Committee of the Red Cross.
The explosion sent shockwaves through the hospital, and one female patient waiting for an operation was wounded by bomb blast shrapnel, said nurse Mohamed Omar, who provided the death toll.
