A suicide bomber blew himself up on Friday at a tea shop in Somalia’s capital, killing at least seven people, Al Jazeera reported.

The Sunni-extremist al-Shabab terrorist group claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement on its Arabic media unit Shahada News Agency on Friday, putting the number of dead at 11 and wounded at 18.

Friday’s attack came barely a day after five civilians were killed and 13 others wounded in a car bombing, as well as a truck bombing on Saturday in the central town of Beledweyne killing 21 people and injuring dozens.
