Police in Kampala say the twin explosions ripped through two restaurants showing the final World Cup match between Spain and the Netherlands. Residents say both restaurants were packed at the time of the blasts. Several foreigners are reported to have been among the dead and wounded, including one American national. Kampala resident Naboth Muhereza says that Ugandans are deeply shocked and worried. "Everyone is going to work. But of course, we are scared," said Muhereza. "We are working, but in fear." Police said the first blast ripped through an Ethiopian restaurant. The second, deadlier attack struck a rugby club where viewers were watching the game on a large, outdoor screen. No one has yet claimed responsibility for the bombings. But police say they believe members of Somalia's extremist rebel group, al-Shabab, could have carried out the attacks. The al-Qaida-linked group recently threatened Uganda and Burundi for contributing troops to the African Union peacekeeping mission in Somalia. Al-Shabab controls most of Somalia's capital, Mogadishu, and has banned World Cup broadcasts there.  In Mogadishu, a commander for al-Shabab, Sheik Yusuf Sheik Issa, told the Associated Press he was happy with the attacks in Uganda, but he refused to confirm or deny whether the group was responsible. Somali militias have threatened to attack Kampala because Ugandan peacekeepers are part of the African Union force deployed to Somalia to support the interim government.  White House officials said President Barack Obama was "deeply saddened" by the "deplorable and cowardly" attacks. He and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the United States is ready to provide any assistance requested by the Ugandan government. The U.S. embassy confirmed at least one American was killed in the blasts, and media reports said at least three were injured. Some information for this report was provided by AP, AFP and Reuters. .
