The scene at the presidential compound in Mogadishu after it was attacked by a suicide bomber. At least four people were killed in the blast which Al Shabaab has claimed responsibility for. The hardline Islamist group, which formally joined al Qaeda last month, has increased its bombings in the capital --- in its efforts to underscore the continued insecurity in the country.
