Large crowd pays final respects to Chinese man killed in Somalia attack

Nearly 1,000 people in Jinan, Shandong province, paid their respects on Sunday morning to the Chinese embassy guard killed in the Somalia bomb attack a week earlier.

Zhang Nan, 28, who had been in the Chinese military for 11 years, died in the July 26 terrorist attack near the Chinese embassy in Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia, where he served as a security officer. Fifteen people, some with other countries' embassies, were killed in the attack.
