The East Africa Daily Monitor is reporting that more than 50 people are dead as a result of three separate attacks on the Ugandan capital of Kampala. Those killed were watching the World Cup final on giant screens at crowded restaurants and at a sports stadium.

From The Daily Monitor:

Police confirmed that 13 people, more than half of them foreigners were killed at Ethiopian Village Restaurant in Kabalagala, a Kampala suburb, while Daily Monitor reporters counted about 40 bodies at Kyaddondo rugby grounds where a huge crowd was watching the Spain Vs Netherlands Word Cup final.

Another blast was reported to have gone off in Ntinda, another Kampala surburb, as more than 100 were reported admitted in hospitals and clinics in the capital including the national referral hospital - Mulago.

Meanwhile the AP (via Daily Caller) is reporting that Al-Shabab is most likely responsible:

Police Chief Kale Kaihura said he believed that Somalia’s most feared militia — al-Shabab, which has pledged loyalty to al-Qaida — could be behind the attacks.

Al-Shabab is Somalia’s most dangerous militant group, one that militant veterans of the Afghan, Pakistan and Iraq conflicts have helped train, according to international officials.

If Kaihura’s early suspicions that al-Shabab was responsible prove true, it would be the first time the group has carried out attacks outside of Somalia.

In Mogadishu, Sheik Yusuf Sheik Issa, an al-Shabab commander, told The Associated Press early Monday that he was happy with the attacks in Uganda.

UPDATE!

Channel 6 BNO News out of Kampala is now reporting "51 Dead," and "Hundreds injured."

UPDATE!

Jihad Watch is calling the attacks "synchronized," and is reporting that Al-Shabab had "threatened Uganda and Burundi in the last few days."

UPDATE!

Various media now reporting Death Toll has risen to 64.
