Kenya and Ethiopia sign deal for joint operations against Al-Shabaab
|
[Garowe] Æthiopia and Kenya have signed a major agreement that paves way for joint operations in the fight against al-Shabaab
 ...... the Islamic version of the old Somali warlord...
Death Eaters and the Shene terror group which operates predominantly in Æthiopia.
Both al-Shabaab and Shene groups have been designated as terror groups in Æthiopia and Somalia, where they have been linked to the deaths of innocent civilians and security officers. The groups have been fighting the respective governments.
State-owned Fana reported that the joint cooperation will improve peace and stability in the two sisterly countries. While Kenya is prone to al-Shabaab attacks, Æthiopia, despite being a neighbor to Somalia, has managed to keep the group at bay.
However,
those who apply themselves too closely to little things often become incapable of great things...
the Shene group which operates in Æthiopia has been antagonizing the administration of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, who is also battling to reclaim the Tigray region having fallen out with leaders from the Tigray community.
The assertion came at a time when Æthiopian Federal Police Commissioner General Demelash Gebremichael received the third Inspector General of the Kenyan National Police Service Commission, Hilary Nzioki Mutyambai at his office and held a discussion on issues of mutual concern.
According to the Æthiopian media, the two top coppers agreed to launch a joint operation against al-Shabaab and Shene groups to stop hostile activities by the two organizations. It is stated on the occasion that the two countries will sign MoU for the joint operation within a month.
He said Æthiopia and Kenya agreed to enhance cooperation in the exchange of information, adding that the MoU will enable the countries to ensure cross-border peace and security. Æthiopia and Kenya have not had serious security partnerships in the past.
In Somalia, the two countries deployed troops which are fighting along with the Somali National Army within the African Union
...a union consisting of 53 African states, most run by dictators of one flavor or another. The only all-African state not in the AU is Morocco. Established in 2002, the AU is the successor to the Organisation of African Unity (OAU), which was even less successful...
Mission Forces [AMISOM]. They have a combined force of about 8,000 soldiers in the war-torn nation.
