A commission investigation into this year's October 14th attack shows this. In the report, which had access to the AP news agency, I claimed that in the October 14th attack of 312 people were injured and 62 people were considered missing.
The bomb truck had exploded on the route frequented near the most important state institutions, and according to Somali officials, it is the biggest explosion Mogadisho has seen.
The Somali government blamed the attack on the extremist Islamist group Al-Shabab, which often carried out bomb attacks in Mogadisho. For now, the group has not claimed responsibility for the attack.
