Zitat:Kampala blasts: Explosions hit Ugandan capitalhttps://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-59302917
Two explosions have shaken the centre of the Ugandan capital Kampala, killing at least six people and wounding several others, officials say.
One blast took place near parliament, with the other close to the city's police headquarters. Witnesses told of carnage at the scene, with cars ablaze and windows shattered. More bombs have been found in other parts of the city, officials said. [...] Ugandan forces are part of an African Union peacekeeping force in Somalia fighting al-Shabab, an insurgent group allied to al-Qaeda. Last month, the Islamic State group said it was behind an attack on a bar in Kampala which killed a 20-year-old waitress. [...]
Counter-terrorism officers were trying their best to detect any other bombs planted in the city, Uganda's National Emergency Coordination and Operations Centre said. Three bombs have already been found, including two near a court, it added.
