The military officials from Galmudug
...a semiautonomous region in central Somalia, bordering Puntland on the north. Galmudug is not trying to obtain international recognition as a separate nation, but rather considers itself autonomous within the larger Somali federalism, for what that's worth...
State told Somali National Army (SNA) Radio that the regional forces backed by the local residents fought bravely and repulsed the attackers.
"The regional security forces of Somalia's Galmudug State and local residents have gallantly repulsed an attack by al-Shabaab on Bahdo town on Friday morning, killing 16 al-Shabaab terrorists," the SNA Radio reported.
The locals said the dead bodies of al-Shabaab bandidos Death Eaters were scattered on the ground after the foiled attack.
Witnesses said al-Shabaab started their offensive by detonating multiple vehicle-borne improvised bombs targeting the village and security forces.
"But the troops later teamed up with local residents and local Sufi militia to put up a strong resistance and thwarted the attack," a local resident who declined to be named said on the phone.
The Somali government forces which have intensified security operations across the country since early this year have vowed to sustain the onslaught against the murderous Moslem group until their fighters are subdued.
However,
denial ain't just a river in Egypt...
the al-Shabaab terror group which still controls some parts of rural southern and central Somalia continues to carry out high-profile attacks in Mogadishu and elsewhere across the country.
