At least 10 Ethiopian soldiers have been killed and 13 others injured in a landmine explosion in south of the Somali capital, Mogadishu. The Ethiopian troops were killed when their vehicle hit a landmine in Waaberi district on Wednesday, a Press TV correspondent reported from Mogadishu. Several civilians were also injured in the attack, witnesses said. Another roadside bomb, targeting Ugandan peace keepers went off near Adan Adde international airport in southern Mogadishu, but there were no immediate reports on the number of casualties, witnesses said. The streets of Mogadishu are the scene of daily clashes between Insurgents and Ethiopian troops, Somalia government forces and African Union peacekeepers. Somalia has been plagued by almost uninterrupted civil unrest since the 1991 ouster of former president Mohamed Siad Barre. HE/MMN
