| MOGADISHU -- On the fourth day of the holy month of Ramadan, Al Shabaab gunmen attacked training base in Mogadishu’s Shibis district highlighting rise in militant operations in central and southern Somalia, Garowe Online reports. A spokesman for Ministry of Security said, the dawn raid by Al Shabaab gunmen has been foiled, while pro-militant media writes, attackers are returning fire inside the training base where intelligence officers are trained. The attack began with suicide bomber cruising through the base, but reports claim that all Al Shabaab fighters who triggered a gun-battle with security forces were killed. The pre-planned dawn assault marks the fourth since the beginning of Ramadan. |
