TEHRAN, December 14 - A suicide bomber in police uniform blew himself up inside a police training camp in Somalia's capital Mogadishu on Thursday, killing at least 13 police officers, officials said.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - Police spokesman Major Mohamed Hussein said the attacker, with explosives strapped to his body, infiltrated the General Kahiye Police Training Academy and struck during a police parade.

The al Shabaab militants claimed responsibility for the attack.
"We will give details of casualties later," said Abdiasis Abu Musab, the group's military operations spokesman.
