On 24 July 2019, a female suicide bomber entered and blew herself up inside Mogadishu Mayor Abdirahmean Omar Osman's office, during a security meeting, killing six government officials and injuring nine of Osman's staff. James Swan was the target of the attack, but Swan had met the mayor earlier, leaving before the blast occurred. Osman was critically wounded in the attack, and succumbed to his injuries a week later, on 1 August 2019, after having been transported to and hospitalised in Doha, Qatar. The attack was claimed by Al Shabaab.[1][2] Seven people were killed, including Osman.[3]
