Barbarous animals..cowards....these poor people already struggle with poverty .....Islamic group Al Shabab blamed...

The death toll has risen to 231, with more than 275 people injured, after a truck bomb in Somalia that the U.S. government condemned Sunday as a "cowardly" attack.
"Such cowardly attacks reinvigorate the commitment of the United States to assist our Somali and African Union partners to combat the scourge of terrorism," the U.S. mission to Somalia said in a statement.


None of the roughly 400 U.S. troops in Somalia were hurt in the attack, a spokesman for the U.S. Africa Command told Fox News.
The International Committee of the Red Cross said four volunteers with the Somali Red Crescent Society were among the dead.
A statement Sunday said "this figure may rise as there are a number of volunteers still missing."
Hospitals in Mogadishu struggled Sunday to cope with the high number of casualties, security and medical sources said.
Ambulance sirens echoed across the city a day after the blast as bewildered families wandered in the rubble of buildings, looking for missing relatives.

President Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed declared three days of mourning and joined thousands of people who responded to a desperate plea by hospitals to donate blood for the wounded victims. "I am appealing all Somali people to come forward and donate," he said.

Many victims died at hospitals from their wounds, said Police Capt. Mohamed Hussein.
Abshir Abdi Ahmed, a senator, announced the number injured, citing doctors at hospitals he has visited in Mogadishu.
Somalia's government has blamed the al-Qaida-linked al-Shabab extremist group for the attack it called a "national disaster." However, al-Shabab, which often targets high-profile areas of the capital with bombings, had yet to comment.

"They don't care about the lives of Somali people, mothers, fathers and children," Prime Minister Hassan Ali Khaire said. "They have targeted the most populated area in Mogadishu, killing only civilians."
Somalia's information minister, Abdirahman Omar, said the blast was the largest the city had ever seen. "It's a sad day. This how merciless and brutal they are, and we have to unite against them," he said, speaking to the state-run radio station.
Overnight, rescue workers with torch lights searched for any survivors trapped under the rubble of the Safari Hotel, which was largely destroyed. The hotel is close to Somalia's foreign ministry. The blast blew off metal gates and blast walls erected outside the hotel.

Kabul attack: Shia mosque suicide bombing kills at least 30 people in Afghan capital

Scores of people have been killed in a day of violence in Afghanistan after suicide bombers detonated in two mosques in different parts of the country.
In the Imam Zamam mosque in the capital, Kabul, an attacker walked into the building and detonated his explosives, killing 30 people and hurting 45, a security official said.
Isis has claimed responsibility for the bombing.

Photos emerged on social media showing the aftermath of the blast, and the bodies of the dead were covered in rugs by bystanders.

Eyewitness Ali Mohammad told AP the mosque was packed with worshippers, both men and women praying at the height of the Muslim week.

The explosion was so strong that it shattered windows on nearby buildings, he said.

Local residents who rushed to the scene to help the victims were overcome with anger and started chanting, "Death to Isis", a reference to the Islamic State group which has staged similar attacks on Shiite mosques in recent months.
Shortly afterwards, another blast was took place in a Sunni mosque in the Dolaina district of the northwestern Ghor province, killing 33 people.
The intended target is believed to have been a local warlord.
The two bombings followed a wave of violence in the country.
