An official from the local community militia known as Ma’wisley confirmed the strike targeted Jeh Jeha area, south of the Mudug region, where the murderous Moslems were gathering.

"The operation took place in a place where al-Shabaab members gathered to plan an attack against an army base in the region," said Abdicasis Qobey, the Ma’wisley official.

The attack in the South of the Mudug region came as SNA and clan militia have been conducting air and ground operations targeting the al-Shabaab for the past few weeks.
