Somali officials say fighting between insurgents and government forces in the capital, Mogadishu, has killed at least seven people.
The head of Mogadishu's ambulance service, Ali Muse Sheikh, said Monday that ambulance workers found the seven bodies in neighborhoods in the capital. He said at least 26 others were wounded.
Ten of the injured were children, hurt when a stray bomb from the clashes hit their school.
A spokesman for Islamist militant group al-Shabab said the group captured new territory during Sunday's attacks. But the government denied the insurgents had made any gains.
