Terrorists Attack UN Offices in Mogadishu

Revelation 6:3-4 NCV When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a red one. Its rider was given power to take away peace (prosperity, rest) from the earth and to make people kill each other (butcher, slaughter, to maim violently, in streets), and he was given a big sword (assassins sword, terrorist, loud, mighty, sore afraid).

The Islamic terrorist group al-Shabab claimed responsibility for an attack on the UN Offices in Mogadishu, Somalia, killing at least 15.

A witness told the BBC that a homicide bomber drove a car to the entrance of the UN compound and detonated his explosives. Four gunmen then ran through the opening in the wall and began to fire.

Pro-government African Union forces have secured the compound after a short gun battle. The UN relaunched their offices in Somalia after previously keeping their headquarters in neighboring Kenya because of the threat of terror attacks.

The UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office said that three British nationals are among the dead. Al-Shabab posted on their twitter account that 16 were killed including the three Britons.

All the terrorists reportedly were killed in the counter-assault.
