At least 10 people have been killed by two suicide car bomb attacks on the local government headquarters in Somalia's Galkayo town in the semi-autonomous Puntland region, Sky News reported on Sunday.
Police said the militant al Shabaab group claimed responsibility for Sunday's attack.
'We have confirmed 10 people dead including civilians and security forces,' said Ali Ahmed, a police officer.
Witnesses and residents said they heard two loud blasts in quick succession followed by heavy gunfire.
Al Shabaab, which has been carrying out a series of deadly attacks in Somalia, said it was behind the attack.
