Today, the Somali federal government announced the killing of 20 fighters of the “Al-Shabaab” movement in an operation in the “Balad Al-Amin” area in the Lower Shabelle Governorate, in the state of Southwest.
This came in a press conference held by the Somali Minister of Information Daoud Aweys a while ago in the capital, Mogadishu, in the presence of the Special Representative of the Chairperson of the African Union Commission and Head of the Union Mission in Somalia, Ambassador Mohamed El-Amin Soueif.
Aweys indicated that units of the Somali army and intelligence “in cooperation with international partners” carried out the operation, after receiving information about a gathering of Al-Shabaab fighters who were planning to launch terrorist attacks against targets in the region.
