The African Union Transitional Mission in Somalia (ATMIS) Force Commander, General Souef Sam Okeding, visited Ugandan soldiers injured in the recent attack on the Forward Operating Base at Bolumrere in the Lower Shabelle region of South West State.
Gen. Okeding commended the soldiers for their bravery in fighting Al-Shabaab fighters, wishing them a speedy recovery and also offering a cable of condolence to the relatives and friends of those who died during the attack.
On May 29, 2023, the Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres, strongly condemned the recent attack on the base of the African Union Transitional Mission in Somalia (AMTSOM) staffed by Ugandan peacekeepers and renewed his call for the international community to support the mission and the Somali security forces in their fight against violent extremism.
