Shelling kills 15
At least 15 people died on Friday when shells hit an insurgent stronghold in the north of Somalia's capital Mogadishu, witnesses said.
Islamist militants have been battling the Western-backed Somali government and its Ethiopian supporters since early 2007 and now control the south of the Horn of Africa nation.
