Three journalists killed in Somalia blast


Three journalists are confirmed dead in the explosion in Mogadishu that killed at least 22 people, including three cabinet ministers, and two other journalists are critically injured, the Committe to Protect Journalists reports.
A suicide bomber detonated the bomb during a university graduation ceremony at the Hotel Shamo. The CPJ says nine journalists have been killed in Somalia this year, making it one of the deadliest countries in the world for the press, and the deadliest in Africa.
