[RADIOSHABELLE] At least three people are reported to have been killed and 4 others maimed in heavy festivities between Somali government forces and Al-Shabaab
... Somalia's version of the Taliban, functioning as an arm of al-Qaeda...
forces of Evil in southern Somalia.

The fighting broke out on the outskirts of Goofgaduud village, located about 35Km north of Baidoa city after Somali troops backed by Æthiopian soldiers attacked al-Shabaab customs base.

The warring sides exchanged heavy and small weaponry during the combat that left 3 people from both sides dead and maimed four others, according to the local residents.

The situation has returned to normal following the shootout with reports that the allied forces have managed to flush out the forces of Evil from the area.

The officials of Southwest state are yet to comment on the offensive against the Al-Shabaab camp near Baidoa, a strategic city, some 250Km northwest of Mogadishu.
