Rocket hits hotel in latest Mogadishu attack

MOGADISHU, Feb 9 (Reuters) Unknown assailants today fired a rocket into a hotel in north Mogadishu where senior government officials were staying in the latest post-war violence in the chaotic Somali capital, security officials said.

''It struck the reception, breaking windows there.

Definitely, there must be people who are wounded,'' one official told Reuters by telephone of the strike on the Global Hotel.
