| Description |
Thousands of people took to the streets of Mogadishu for the second consecutive day to protest against the terms of the "Kampala Accords" and the resignation of the TFG Prime Minister. TFG security forces supported the demonstrations alongside of their duty to keep order. The demonstrations of 10/06 were far larger that what had occurred the day before and extended in most areas under TFG control. The crowd showed to be obviously hostile to the TFG President and Speaker of Parliament and went on attacking Medina and Muna hotels that are traditional hangouts of TFG MPs supporting these two leaders. Security guards in Medina Hotel fired at the crowd trying to approach the hotel, killing 1 person and injuring several others, triggering an angry reaction and the partial burning of the hotel. Several vehicles belonging to TFG MPs were set on fire. The Prime Minister called for people to stop the violence and get back home. Announcements were made that the demonstrations could extend in the following days. |
