Barrage of mortars flung across Buloburde
2014-04-08
Dozens of mortar shells were flung
...and boy are my arms tired...
across Buloburde of the Hiiraan region last night, targeted at military bases where government troops and African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) soldiers are stationed. The barrage of mortars also hit many neighborhoods in the district.

The precise numbers of casualties and losses are unclear although civilians affected by the mortar shells were rushed to nearby hospitals.

It was only recently when the Buloburde district was liberated from under the control of Al-Shabaab.
