The Somali authorities said that today, Saturday, Al-Shabaab militants ambushed a military convoy that was carrying Ethiopian forces in an area between the town of “Rabtouri” and the city of “Wajid” in the Bakool region in the state of southwestern Somalia.

The Ethiopian military convoy was attacked by an explosive device that hit one of the convoy's cars, which led to a confrontation between Al-Shabaab militants and the Ethiopian forces.

Details of the losses resulting from the bombing and the clashes that followed, which lasted for about an hour, were not immediately clear.

Meanwhile, the movement's fighters launched sporadic attacks on military bases in Qaryoli, Barawi and Janali in the Lower Shabelle region, adjacent to the capital, Mogadishu.
