[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Al-Shabaab
... the Islamic version of the old Somali warlord...
Lions of Islam rammed an exploding car into a Somali army base southwest of the capital on Monday and stormed inside, killing at least 10 soldiers, the group and a military officer said on
Monday.
"A suicide boom-mobile rammed into the base and then al-Shaboobs stormed it. At least 10 soldiers died," Major Ahmed Farah told Rooters from the nearby town of Afgooye.
An al-Shabaab front man said its fighters were behind the raid and said 30 soldiers had been killed. The group often cites a higher corpse count than official figures.
