Two Europeans, believed to be French, have been kidnapped from a hotel in Somalia's capital Mogadishu.
About 10 gunmen disguised as government security forces snatched the men from a hotel in the south of the city.[...]
Gunmen wearing Somali police uniforms turned up at the guest house, seized the two men and took them in a vehicle towards a part of the city run by insurgents, said witnesses.
"Two foreigners have been kidnapped this morning by a large group of gunmen," Somali police spokesman Mohamed Ali told the AFP news agency.
Hotel workers told the BBC Somali service that the two men had checked in to the hotel as French journalists.
