Friday, June 25, 2010 (BIN) – At least four people have been killed and 15 others injured in clashes between Ahlu pro-government Islamists and Hizbul extremists broke out in Somali capital Mogadishu, on Thursday.

According to the residents the fighting was heavy and the groups exchanged mortars that hit Bakaro Market in the restive capital.

“I have seen three people dead in a car including the driver, after a mortar hit the vehicle,” witnesses told Before It’s News.

Mortars hit villages in northern Mogadishu and caused the death of two and injured seven others.

Sheikh Mohamed Osman Arus, Hizbul Islam militia spokesman told the media in Mogadishu said that his group was attacked by another Islamist militia.

Early this year Hizbul Islam top commander told the media that they invited Al-Qaeda leader in Mogadishu, the militants are the second most powerful rebel militia in the capital.

Somali deputy prime minister, Abdirahman Ibbi told the media early this month that Hizbul Islam militias are joining the government troops.

Somalia was without functioning government for the last two decades, nearly 3.7 Somalis are in dire need of urgent aid.
