Tanzania mosque attack kills three

Police in Tanzania say three people have died in what they call a terrorist-style attack on a mosque in Mwanza, in the north-west of the country. 

Mwanza Police Commander Ahmed Msangi told journalists that about 15 people with face masks, machetes, axes and black flags entered the mosque during evening prayers. 

They started attacking the worshippers. 

Several people were injured, including three who eventually died of their wounds.
