London (RBC) The UK government has strongly deplored two deadly attacks that hit Somalia capital Mogadishu on Sunday after Al Shabab extremists members raided Mogadishu courts building at the city centre killing more than 30 people including two famous lawyers and a journalist, RBC Radio reports.

“I strongly condemn today’s terrorist attacks in Mogadishu,” British foreign secretary William Hague said in a statement.

“The UK and the international community… remain committed to helping the people of Somalia achieve peace, security and development,” he added.

“Those responsible for terrorist acts should face justice.” British foreign secretary William Hague added his speech.

On Sunday evening, Somalia president Hassan Sheikh Mohamud announced a new stage of fight against Al Shababab and that security forces of Somalia will give their utmost efforts to secure the capital and the whole country in order not to allow the extremists the citizens to hate the government because of the growing insecurity.
