Somali witnesses said two were killed and four wounded. The incident came a day before 400 Marines were to make an amphibious landing to conduct four days of training maneuvers with Moroccan soldiers and hold medical and dental clinics for Somalis. The landing will occur 50 miles south of Mogadishu to avoid any confrontation with Mohamed Farrah Aidid, who controls the southern half of the capital. The landing originally had been planned for Mogadishu and was to have involved more of the 1,950 Marines offshore. U.

U. S. reinforcements poured into Somalia after an Oct. 3 firefire that killed 18 Americans. Their main mission is to protect U.S. and foreign troops, but officials have said they also are charged with keeping roads open and outting pressure on bandits. Omar Haji Dhafe, who lives near the area, said he saw an American fire a gun mounted with a telescopic sight. He said two people were killed and four wounded, two seriously, although he said two of the casualties may have been from a clan dispute. 9 Americans die on bus tour in England FAVERSHAM, England — A bus carrying American tourists to Canterbury Cathedral careened off a rain-slicked highway yesterday, killing 10 people and injuring more than 30 when it plunged down an embankment.
