took place in the Aboodin area of ​​the Lower Jubba region amid an intensified military offensive.

The battle on Friday afternoon killed more than 70 al-Shabaab members and maimed dozens of others, according to a statement issued by the government on Saturday.

The allied forces from the Somali government and local Jubaland soldiers attacked a gathering of the al-Shabaab group leaders. The dead include senior commanders.

"More than 70 Death Eaters and leaders were killed in the war," said a statement, adding that the US military provided air support to the ground operation in al-Shabaab strongholds.

The ongoing army operations in the Jubaland state are aimed at chasing the al-Shabaab group, which controls the entire Middle Jubba region and other areas in the regional state.
