Mogadishu, May 24 (IBNS): At least 10 people were killed as militants attacked Somalia's Parliament building on Saturday.

The African Union troops joined the Somali police as they are engaged in a battle against the attackers.

The militants belong to the al-Shabab movement.

"A car bomb exploded outside the gates of parliament shortly before midday local time (09:00 GMT), followed by more blasts and bursts of gunfire. The attackers then stormed the front of the parliament building as security forces fired back," BBC reported.
