2012-06-23
(Sh. M. Network)-A remote-controlled land mine blast is reportedly struck at Somali army base in Southern region of Bay, the latest in series attacks against Somali and Æthiopian troops in the region, witnesses and officials said on Friday.

Conflicting reports are coming out of the kaboom, some say the attack was foiled by the Somali forces before it detonated its primary target according to the officials of Somali forces and witnesses said the bomb hit a convoy of military vehicles mounting soldiers at Qansah-dheere district.

Aden Abdikalil Qooqane, the commissioner of Qansah-dheere district for Somali government, told Shabelle Media station in Mogadishu via phone that security forces on Friday defused a land-mine place in a ground near a building locating a Somali army officer in the town.
