Somali troops dislodge third town from Al-Shabaab in two days

is raging on at a speed time as the SNA and vigilantes take over three towns within two days, a victory that will live long.

The minister of defense Abdulakadir Mohammed Nur ticked with a green pen the seizure of the El-Dhere in Galgadud from al-Shabaab peacefully as the gunnies fled from their bases.

El-Dher joined dozens of liberated areas in southern and central regions of Somalia during the current all-out offensive assisted by US military and local clan fighters.

On Monday, the army and their allied locals captured the strategic Indian Ocean city of Harardhere, which has been al-Shabaab’s nerve economic and command center for years.

The latest gains came at no cost of lives as al-Shabaab leaves every district without posing resistance to the SNA assault.

The al-Qaeda-linked gunnies carried out ambush attacks against military bases in Hiran and Middle Shabelle regions, where the group faced big losses on the battlefields.
