Somalia

Two civilians were killed during clashes between government forces and Shabaab and Hizbul Islam in Mogadishu. A gunman wounded three people during an attack on the leadership of the pro-government Ahlu Sunna Waljama in Galkayo. Somali lawmakers want the parliament moved from Mogadishu to Puntland.
