Three Dead In Al-Shabaab Attack On Somali Army Base
[RADIOSHABELLE] At least three people have been killed and several maimed in a daring overnight attack by al-Shabaab
...... Somalia's version of the Taliban, functioning as an arm of al-Qaeda...
on a key Somali military base in the outskirts of Mogadishu on Monday night.

According to the sources, the ambush led to a heavy shootout between the troops and armed hard boyz that led to the deaths of two soldiers and one civilian.

Al-Shabaab has grabbed credit for the assault and said its fighters killed three government soldiers stationed in the base which is located near Bal’ad town.

The attack was the latest in series of al-Shabaab campaign against Somali military bases in southern regions as the country’s army with AU and American forces step up operations to retake areas still under the Death Eaters’ control.
