At least 30 people have now been confirmed dead in Sunday's twin bomb attacks, claimed by militant Islamist group al-Shabab, in the southern Somali town of Baidoa, a regional governor says, AFP news agency reports.
One explosion targeted a restaurant where a crowd was watching the football derby between Manchester United and Arsenal, while a second explosion rocked a nearby hotel popular with politicians and businessmen.
"The official number of the dead has reached 30 people - all of them civilians - and 61 others have been wounded, 15 of them seriously," Abdurashid Abdulahi, the governor of Somalia's Bay region, told AFP.
