A mini-bus loaded with explosives detonated at the main gate of Sahafi Hotel (Wadajir/Medina District) in the morning of 01/11 with unidentified number of al Shabaab gunmen storming the hotel as they exchanged gunfire with the security guards. A suicide bomber detonated a second set of explosive inside the hotel about 30 minutes later. NISA's especial operation unit called Gaashaan was deployed to the scene to battle with the militants.
