Our thoughts are with the victims and their families.<\/p>\n<p> The frequent attacks by al-Shabaab, primarily against civilian targets, are nothing but a cynical war against its own people. Al-Shabaab is crippling the country&rsquo;s economic development and humanitarian relief for the population.<\/p>\n<p> At the same time, it has so far not succeeded in blocking Somalia&rsquo;s continued stabilisation or sabotaging its current electoral process.<\/p>\n<p> The German Government is supporting Somalia&rsquo;s development in a wide range of ways. It is conducting development cooperation; providing humanitarian aid; supporting the establishment of a federal system, the constitutional process and the police force; and working to foster the disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration of fighters.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>Distributed by APO on behalf of Germany &#8211; Federal Foreign Office.<\/i><\/p>\n<div class=\"well well-sm\"><b>Media files<\/b><br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.africa-newsroom.com\/files\/thumb\/b9209fb96b45e36\/200\/70\" alt=\"Germany - Federal Foreign Office\"\/><br \/>Download logo<\/div>\n<p><small><strong>Source:<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.africa-newsroom.com\/press\/statement-by-federal-foreign-office-spokesperson-on-the-bombing-in-mogadishu?lang=en\">APO &#8211; Africa-Newsroom: latest news releases related to Africa<\/a><\/small><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Statement by Federal Foreign Office Spokesperson on the bombing in Mogadishu: A Federal Foreign Office Spokesperson issued the following statement today (11&nbsp;December) on the bombing in the Somali capital Mogadishu that claimed many lives: &#8220;We were shocked to hear of another deadly bombing in the Somali capital Mogadishu for which the Islamist terror militia al-Shabaab [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[4584],"tags":[7168,12393,7050,20282,3543,19822,2272],"class_list":{"0":"post-83827","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-africa-news-2","7":"tag-bombing","8":"tag-federal","9":"tag-foreign","10":"tag-mogadishu","11":"tag-office","12":"tag-spokesperson","13":"tag-statement","14":"entry"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83827","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=83827"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83827\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=83827"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=83827"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=83827"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
