The militant group al-Shabab is claiming responsibility for bombing a United Nations bus in northern Somalia. At least nine people were killed in the attack. The United Nations said four of those killed were working for the U.N. Children’s Fund.

Police said the bomb exploded Monday in Garowe, a town in the Puntland area of Somalia. It was al-Shabab’s third deadly attack against foreigners in three days.

Al-Shabab is seeking to oust the Somali government and create an Islamic state.
