By Abdi Sheikh and Feisal Omar MOGADISHU (Reuters) - At least seven Somalis were killed when a remote-controlled bomb aimed at a United Nations convoy tore through cars and tea shops just outside the capital's international airport on Thursday. Somali Islamist militant group al Shabaab claimed responsibility for the attack, which damaged one U.N. vehicle. A U.N. official said none of its staff were hurt. Four men who were part of a private security escort for the U.N. convoy suffered minor injuries, the official said.
