LONDON (Reuters) - Britain said on Friday it feared imminent terrorist attacks in the Somali capital Mogadishu, in an update of its advice for travellers to the east African country.
Britain's Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) already advises against any travel to any part of Somalia.
"Our advice makes clear that there continues to be a high threat from terrorism and that the FCO believes that terrorists are in the final stages of planning attacks in Mogadishu," the Foreign Office said in a statement.
It gave no further details about who Britain believed might commit the attacks or where its information came from.
Security in Mogadishu has improved since Islamist group al Shabaab fled the city after a military offensive in August 2011. But bombings and assassinations are still frequent.
On Tuesday a bomb exploded in Mogadishu outside the headquarters of Somalia's biggest bank, wounding at least two people, hours after members of al Shabaab ordered the company to cease operations in areas under their control.

All they can do is throw a grenade in a market or blow themselves up at a restaurant. The more they do it, the more the locals will hate them and the faster they disappear.
They can go do their worst. Al Shabab is finished

Re: Britain believes Xamar is a terrorhub and still danger
Either Britain is trying to prevent British Somalis from going back home to visit, which is fishy (what are they trying to hide?), or they know about something we don't, which is still fishy (what do they know?).
Either way, Britain, America, and all other neo-colonial nation-states need to stay out of Africa's affairs and pull their troops out (specifically America and France). Their actions too often violate African nations' sovereignty.
