Chines government official  said it would reinstate its embassy in Somalia on Tuesday amid signs the country was making solid progress in its efforts to restore peace. But the subsequent explosion in the capital could prompt concerns over moves to strengthen ties.

It is unclear who carried out the attack, but previous similar incidents in Mogadishu have been claimed by Al-Shabaab militants, who have vowed to unleash a series of attacks during the month of Ramadan.

Although roamers are pointing their fingers to the Ethiopian underground intelligence networks and Kenyan Somalia operation supporters in Mogadishu. Somalia has installed its most legitimate government for decades since President Hassan Sheikh Mohamoud’s election in 2012, but it has struggled to exert influence beyond the capital and remains plagued by deadly attacks by militants and other unknown forces inside Mogadishu.
