... an Islamic infestation centering on Somalia...
fighters were killed by a squad of Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) in Bilis Qooqani, in the southern part of Somalia.

The attack happened at around midnight when a group of murderous Moslems ambushed a KDF camp near the town.

The close quarter battle that lasted for more than 30 minutes, ended with 24 fatalities while many others escaped with wounds.

KDF recovered 25 AK-47 rifles, one PKM machine gun and assorted rounds of ammunition.

Unfortunately, three soldiers drawn from the Special Operations Regiment (SOR) sustained injuries.

Bilis Qooqaani is a town in the Afmadow district of the Lower Juba region of southern Somalia.
It lies approximately 70 kilometres away from the Kenya-Somali border.
