A car bomb exploded on Thursday near the entrance of Mogadishu’s heavily guarded international airport, where many foreign diplomats are based, a Reuters witness and police officer said.

Small tea shops outside the airport were on fire and body parts could be seen on the ground near a burning car, a Reuters photographer on the scene said. A police officer said the blast was caused by a car bomb.
