Somalia: Buurhakaba wokeup sunday morning with the sound of artillery shells |
2006-12-24 |
![]() A resident in Burhakaba told SomaliNet that both sides are exchanging very loud and deafening shells. She said the incoming shells are much lauder than the previous days suggesting either the government side is using longer range artillery pieces or they are coming closer to Buurhakaba area. It is still too early and neither side has commented on today's fight yet. We'll keep you updated as more news comes in. |

#3 Thanks for the map...the southern city of Kaambooni looks like a great low cost ocean view vacation site! I'll check with my travel agent. |

#2 She said the incoming shells are much louder than the previous days suggesting either the government side is using longer range artillery pieces or they are coming closer to Buurhakaba area. Either of which is good news. Let's hope the Ethiopians have advanced spotters. Maybe advanced spotting technology. Maybe even some spotters who Gen. Franks remembers on a first name basis. |
