2019-03-20
One does hope this is a rinse’n’repeat kill box, rather than the Kenyans having to rconquer the same poor village repeatedly.
[RsdioShabelle] Heavily armed fighters from al-Shabaab
... the Islamic version of the old Somali warlord...
were reported to have retaken full control of a small town in Gedo region, southwest of Somalia, residents said Tuesday.

The bandidos turbans in fighting vehicles rolled into Busar, located about 40 Km South of El-Wak town situated near Somalia’s mostly non-existent border with Kenya.

The takeover came following the withdrawal of Kenyan forces who have been in control of the town since 2012, according to a local resident, who spoke to Radio Shabelle over the phone.

Al-Shabaab fighters retook the area in Gedo region without a battle and announced their come-back in a public square where krazed killer commanders lectured the villagers.
