On Friday, the Somali federal government announced the arrest of 10 workers in the security services who it said were spying for Al-Shabaab.

Dawoud Owais, the Minister of Information, indicated in a press conference that some of those accused of spying for Al-Shabaab fled after learning of the ongoing investigations regarding Al-Shabaab's collaborators.

Owais added that among the fugitives were Abd al-Sattar Abd al-Qadir Issa and Ayanli Muhammad Ali, who were employees of the government security services.

The National Intelligence and Security Agency issued a security alert regarding both Issa and Ali, who it said were participating in covert activities on behalf of Al-Shabaab, collecting sensitive information and assisting the movement's actions, and called on citizens to immediately report when they were seen or obtained information about them.
