Mulago National Referral Hospital has revealed that they have so far admitted 27 causalities of the Kampala twin bomb attack.

This was revealed by Mulago National Referral Hospital Deputy Executive Director, Dr Rosemary Byanyima.

“We have so far received 27 casualties of the bomb blasts this morning. Seven are in critical conditions while 20 are stable. Seven of them are female and the rest are men and majority of the victims are police officers. We have not lost any patient yet,” she said.

Today morning, two bombs went off in the city centre

The first explosion happened at Kooki Towers opposite Central Police Station near Constitutional Square while the second one happened just next door along Parliamentary Avenue.

The twin attacks follow two blasts last month — a bus explosion near Kampala that wounded many people and a bombing at a roadside eatery in the capital that killed one woman.

Police is expected to hold a press conference in the next few minutes.
