Reports from the border town of Dolo in the Gedo region of Jubbaland state said that Al-Shabaab attacked an Ethiopian army military base on Wednesday with two car bombs.
According to the government account, the first car exploded at the entrance to the base, while the forces succeeded in preventing the second car bomb from reaching the base where Ethiopian forces not affiliated with the African Union Transitional Mission in Somalia (ATMIS) are stationed.
For its part, the Al-Shabaab movement linked to Al-Qaeda claimed responsibility for the attack and said in a leaflet that its fighters were able to target Al-Qaeda with two booby-trapped cars, but there are no independent sources confirming the claims of both sides.
