Shabaab claimed responsibility for killing a senior Somali government official in Mogadishu. Three people were killed in clashes between soldiers and armed protesters opposing the demolition of their houses near Mogadishu’s main airport. Israeli security guards on board a ship repelled an attempted hijacking off Somalia for the second time in a week.
