Over 40 Al-Shabaab Leaders and Militants killed in Targeted Operation – NISA
[ShabelleMedia] In a meticulously planned joint operation, the National Intelligence and Security Agency (NISA), the Somali National Army (SNA), and international partners successfully targeted and eliminated over 40 al-Shabaab ... the Islamic version of the old Somali warlord...operatives in the Ceelhareeri area of Hiiraan region. The operation, executed with precision, focused on a location where al-Shabaab snuffies were concealed. In addition to neutralizing the bully boys, the operation destroyed vehicles utilized by the group. Among those confirmed killed are Abuu Anas, identified as the head of al-Shabaab’s logistics for combat units, and Mohammed Ahmed (Xerow), a senior field commander within the group. Notably, Nuur Cabdi Rooble (Nuunuule), responsible for al-Shabaab operations across Hiiraan, Middle Shabelle, Mudug, and Galgaduud regions, and Commander Jeylaani, a top leader overseeing bully boy fronts, sustained critical injuries during the operation. These individuals were believed to be the criminal masterminds behind recent suicide kabooms orchestrated by al-Shabaab in the Hiiraan and Middle Shabelle regions. The success of this operation significantly disrupts their operational capabilities and undermines their plans against the Somali populace.
