In pictures: Uganda blasts
Explosions thought to be bomb attacks have ripped through two venues in Kampala, Uganda.
The explosions, which killed at least 64 people, happened at an Ethiopian-owned restaurant and a rugby club.
Police are investigating whether the blasts were caused by suicide bombers.
The blasts hit as large crowds of people had gathered to watch the football World Cup final.
While many died, dozens of people were also injured in the blasts in two of Kampala's suburbs.
Americans from a Pennsylvania Church group were caught up in the blasts - at least one US national was killed.
Local police believe the attacks may be the work of Somali Islamists angered by Ugandan troop presence in Somalia; analysts have suggested the violence could be linked to next year's election.
