Kampala: Ugandan authorities said Monday morning that 10 Eritreans and 1
American are among more than 60 people killed in the simultaneous bomb
blasts that went off in Kampala last night.
6 Americans believed to be from a Church group Pennsylvania are also
injured.
Simultaneous explosions ripped through crowds watching the World Cup final
at Kyadondo rugby club and the Ethiopian restaurant in Kabalagala – both in
Kampala.
Ugandan Police fear Al Shabab, an Al Qaeda-linked Somali militant group was
behind the attacks, according to reports.
Blood and pieces of flesh littered the floor among overturned chairs at the
scenes of the blasts, which went off as people watched Sunday night's game
between Spain and the Netherlands.
Police confirmed that 13 people, more than half of them foreigners were
killed at Ethiopian Village Restaurant in Kabalagala, a Kampala suburb,
while Daily Monitor reporters counted about 40 bodies at Kyaddondo rugby
grounds where a huge crowd was watching the Spain Vs Netherlands Word Cup
final.
Another blast was reported to have gone off in Ntinda, another Kampala
surburb, as more than 100 were reported admitted in hospitals and clinics in
the capital including the national referral hospital - Mulago
