Tragic Truck Bomb Explosion Claims Dozens of Lives in Somali City
At least 18 people were killed and 40 others injured when a truck bomb exploded at a security checkpoint in Beledweyne, Somalia. The explosives-laden vehicle forcefully passed through the government-manned checkpoint before detonating, causing significant damage. The city has been the focus of the Somali government's military offensive against al-Shabaab, but no immediate claim of responsibility has been made.
