Various reports are emerging about the losses caused by an attack carried out last night by Al-Shabaab militia on an ATMIS military base on the outskirts of Barawe in the Lower Shabelle region.
The attack was followed by direct fighting between ATMIS forces, especially Ugandan residents of the camp and Al-Shabaab members who attacked the government.
Some of the residents told that they heard the sound of gunfire and heavy weapons exchanged between the two sides during the fighting.
ATMIS forces reportedly resisted the attack, and al-Shabaab militia that targeted the gas station finally retreated.
The group, which reported on the fighting, said in their social media that it attacked a Ugandan army base and suffered losses, although they did not disclose official figures.
All ATMIS forces in cooperation with the National Army conducted operations after the fighting to capture the attackers in Barawe area.
