Somalia: Mogadishu: Exercise caution amid increase in attacks; liaise with provider over feasibility of movement

Two people were killed and three others injured on 16 July when a homemade bomb detonated near a telecommunications company’s office in the Hawl-Waag district of the capital Mogadishu. No group has thus far claimed responsibility for the explosion. The incident is the latest in a series of low-level attacks since 8 July in central Mogadishu. Members on business-critical travel to the capital should exercise caution amid this spike in attacks targeting strategic infrastructure, including police checkpoints. Members should liaise with their dedicated security provider regarding the feasibility of all essential movement.
