5:02 pm
but the hotel is often used by somali government officials. there is a mom hammered. ali has more from the location. my general who drew me and but the abuse and a tech that started with successful bombings, has targeted the hyatt hotel south of the somali capital mogadishu. the hotel is usually used by officials, public servants, and civilians. also, parties are organized and political conferences held in this hotel. this was the target of an attack by a number of gunman belonging to the alex about the group who stormed the hotel after the bombings. smalley forces arrived at the hotel in order to respond, but they have not been able to secure it, even after an hour's long siege. the somali police spokesman see the situation as close to a resolution as most of the perpetrators of this attack have been arrested. somali forces imposed the security code on the perimeter to prevent everyone from getting closer. there are very conflicting accounts about the casualties resulting from this attack. what the somali government and security authorities have not yet
5:03 pm
commented on the attack and have not yet made clear where the government officials are among those killed or not. m. o, mahmud, as seen, the east africa analyst for the international crisis group. he says above seems to have slightly changed their strategy in recent attacks. these types of attacks have been a hallmark of altima operations couple years ago in particular. and they, they kind of slowed down a little bit, but we see them popping up again. and yes, the so tell us are usually attacked because that's areas where government officials congregate. and in. so there's a lot of meetings, a lot of activity, especially right now with the new government coming into into place and setting up a lot of appointments and positions. but there's also often been a secondary element to some of you can also, bob runs a very extensive extortion racket within morbid issue itself. and they've targeted business owners that haven't confined as well in 2017, there was there was a massive explosion of premature explosion and seen i conducted by a show bob,
5:04 pm
where over 500, the 600 people were killed in downtown norwood issue. and you saw a little bit of a shift basically from that a hack onwards in ultra bob messaging. they were trying to justify some of their attacks. explain that, you know, there are civilian casualties and war and warn civilians to avoid these types of locations. but they also slowed down the types of incidences as well. but if you look at where chalabi is throughout somalia, it's very present and the dominant governing master really and in a lot of world locations in, in. so there's a balance there for development, does provide some services to populations, especially in the realm of justice and whatnot. but they also demand a lot from the population. they demand recruitment, they demand at station as well. and so there is a little bit of a balance there, and i think she struggles with this in terms of popularity, but we have to measure this not in terms of all so, but in relation to the government as well. so if also bob's the least, you know,
5:05 pm
negative alternative between those 2 people will still turn to it. so, so it's up to the government to basically demonstrate that they are a better governing actor and you know, a better long term best. and then i'll show all the russia says they drove were shot down over its navy headquarters in crimea, the latest in a series of attacks aimed at moscow's black sea fleet. it was the 2nd attempt to attack against the feat headquarters in less than a month on july, the 31st to try and strike in headquarters courtyard. wounded 5 people elected the cancellation of naval day celebrations. but early this month, the sankey, military base was damaged by several large explosions. britain's defense ministry says the russian navy's air capability was seriously degraded. russian forces had ceased natalia island and the black sea south of odessa. on the 1st day of the invasion, the strategic outpost boosted the russian navies ability to fire cruise missiles of
