This is followed by a three-minute live telephone interview with Al-Arabiya's correspondent in Mogadishu Muhammad Juri. Juri says: "Al-Arabiya TV office is coming under extensive gunfire here in Mogadishu. Al-Arabiya TV lies near a large hotel, where some government officials are staying. You can hear the gunfire. It seems that the armed men who are opposed to the presence of the incumbent government and the Ethiopian forces have attacked this hotel." He continues to say that Al-Arabiya cameramen managed to take pictures of the armed men opening gunfire.
