Al-Shabaab Weapons Store Destroyed in Somalia
|
[Garowe] The Somali National Army (SNA) has destroyed a suspected al-Shabaab
 ... the Islamic version of the old Somali warlord...
weapon store in central regions, following a sophisticated operation launched by the military within Adan Yabaal district, which is largely under the krazed killers.
The two facilities were used for storage of weapons and vehicle-borne explosive preparations, officials said. The snuffies usually use the facilities to wage attacks against security forces and innocent civilians within central regions.
Reports by security teams suggested that the compound, which was destroyed, was used by the snuffies to rig vehicles with explosives. It was destroyed beyond repair, officials said while lauding the Somali National Army for the success.
Military sources described the raid as a strategic blow to al-Shabaab’s logistical network in the central region. The damage would significantly aid the military in increasing its operations against al-Shabaab to retake the town.
"This marks a key step in disrupting the group’s capacity to launch attacks," a senior army officer told news hounds, requesting anonymity due to the sensitivity of the operation.
The Somali National Army (SNA), backed by local intelligence, has intensified operations across Galgaduud and Middle Shabelle in recent months to degrade al-Shabaab’s strongholds. The Ministry of Defence is yet to release further details after the attack.
Adan Yabaal town was taken by the snuffies a few months ago, but there are deliberate attempts to regain control following increased military operations within the district. al-Shabaab is fighting to topple the fragile UN-backed federal government of Somalia.
