The speaker of Somalia's parliament has called for neighbouring states to send troops to the country within 24 hours.

Islamist forces battling the country's transitional government briefly took over a police station and other key buildings in Karan district.
Thousands are fleeing the area, previously a refuge for the displaced.
"The government is weakened by the rebel forces," AFP news agency quoted Sheikh Aden Mohamed Nur as saying.
"We ask neighbouring countries - including Kenya, Djibouti, Ethiopia and Yemen - to send troops to Somalia within 24 hours."
