The two car bombs that exploded at Somalia's education ministry next to a busy market intersection killed at least 100 people and wounded 300, President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud has said, warning the death toll could rise

Yesterday's attack was the deadliest since a truck bomb exploded at the same intersection in October 2017, killing more than 500 people.

Mohamed Moalim, who owns a small restaurant near the intersection, said his wife, Fardawsa Mohamed, a mother of six, rushed to the scene after the first explosion to try to help.President Mohamud said some of the wounded were in a serious condition and the death toll could rise. The K5 intersection normally teems with people buying and selling everything from food, clothing and water to foreign currency and khat, a mild narcotic leaf.Somalia's international partners condemned the attack and sent condolences to affected families.

The chairperson of the African Union Commission, Moussa Faki Mahamat, urged the international community to"redouble its efforts to ensure robust international support to Somalia's institutions in their struggle to defeat terrorist groups".
