Witnesses in Somalia’s capital say Ethiopian [Woyanne] troops shot and killed at least eight people late Tuesday, following a roadside bomb attack.
The witnesses say the bomb hit a [Woyanne] military convoy, damaging a truck and causing an unknown number of casualties.
They say after the blast, [Woyanne] troops opened fire on a minibus, killing two passengers, and shot several youths in the area, including three brothers.
Attacks on Somali government officials and their [Woyanne] allies have increased in recent weeks despite a government claim of victory over Islamist insurgents in late April.
