Violent clashes erupted between Somali forces and Al-Shabaab militants in the “Govgadud Buri” area in Bay region, in the state of southwestern Somalia.
The clashes erupted after fighters from the movement launched an attack on the area, which government forces recently succeeded in regaining control of.
According to local residents, the two sides exchanged heavy artillery fire, which resulted in an unknown number of wounded.
This battle comes a day after the Somali National Army and international allies carried out a major operation in the border between the regions of Middle Shabelle and Galgudud, killing more than 100 Al-Shabaab fighters.
