Forty-seven dead in Somali gun battles
Insurgents and Ethiopian troops backing Somali government forces fought gun battles today in the Somali capital Mogadishu which left at least 47 people dead and 71 wounded, a human rights group said.
Some of the 41 dead civilians are people who were wounded in the previous day’s heavy fighting and died of their injuries today, said Sudan Ali Ahmed, the chairman of the Elman Human Rights Organisation.
