🇸🇴 🚨 💥SOMALIA LAUNCHES LARGE-SCALE OPERATIONS TARGETING AL-SHABAAB HELD TERRITORIES, MORE THAN 70 MILITANTS KILLED💥

The Somali military launched large-scale ground operations targeting territory held by the Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen militant group, commonly known as al-Shabaab.

The Somali military says heavy fighting took place between Somali troops and al-Shabaab militants in the Aboodin area of the Lower Jubba region amid a strong military ground offensive into the rebel-held territories with close U.S. air support.

According to a statement released by the Somali military, more than 70 al-Shabaab fighters were killed and dozens more wounded in the fighting.

Allied forces consisting of the Somali military and Jubaland soldiers attacked concentrations of al-Shabaab's group leaders, leading to the deaths of a number of senior commanders.

"More than 70 militants and leaders were killed in the war,” the Somali military said in its statement, adding that the U.S. military provided air support to the ground operation in Al-Shabaab strongholds.

MOGADISHU, July 13 (Xinhua) -- Four people, including three Somali security officers, were killed in heavy fighting between al-Shabaab militants and regional forces after militants captured a military base in southern Somalia.

Al-Shabaab fighters took over the Gariley military base in Jubaland State, which was recently handed over by the Kenya Defense Forces (KDF) as part of the drawdown of the African Union Transition Mission in Somalia (ATMIS) troops.

Ibrahim Guled Aden, governor of El Wak District in the southern region of Gedo, confirmed that several people were injured in the fighting that finally led to the fall of the base into al-Shabaab control.

"Al-Shabaab fighters attacked our forces at Geriley base and captured it. They are in full control after defeating our forces who were in a small number, but we are working on plans to retake control of the base," Aden said.

The Geriley military base, which is located about 12 kilometers from the border with Kenya, was handed over to the Somali security forces on June 29.

Last week, Mohamud Sayid Aden, deputy president of Jubaland State, expressed concern over the ATMIS drawdown in the region, describing it as a hurried plan.

ATMIS withdrew 2,000 troops by June 30, and another 3,000 is expected to be withdrawn in September in compliance with the United Nations Security Council Resolutions 2628 and 2670, which mandates ATMIS to also hand over security responsibilities in agreed areas to Somali security forces.

Clan Fighting Threatens Somaliland’s Independent, Hard-Fought Security

#Somaliland has come this far without leaning on the #USA for military help. But the recent violence will be a serious test of its autonomy & will compromise not only SL’s hard-earned #security & #stability but further erode in the broader #region says Mi

Hargeisa has kept terrorists at bay without US help. Now leaders need to let local mechanisms take hold to keep it that way. By Michael Horton For much of the last 20 years, the autonomous, but unrecognized, Republic of Somaliland has been a bastion of stability in the perennially unstable Horn of Africa. However, fighting between the government of Somaliland and clan-based militias in the…

Ataque Al-Shabab no Quênia: terrorismo islâmico mata cristãos em vila Bobo

Confira a novidade em https://ntgospel.com/noticias/perseguicao-religiosa/ataque-al-shabab-no-quenia-terrorismo-islamico-mata-cristaos-em-vila-bobo

Ataque Al-Shabab no Quênia: terrorismo islâmico mata cristãos em vila Bobo

Na manhã de terça-feira, 9 de abril de 2024, supostos membros do grupo terrorista Al-Shabab perpetraram um ataque contra a comunidade cristã da vila de Bobo, na região de Hindi, no Quênia. A vila já havia sido alvo de ataques do grupo extremista em 2022.

Posteriormente, no mesmo dia, os militantes bloquearam a rota entre Mpeketoni e Hindi na área de Milihoi, no condado de Lamu, interrompendo o fluxo de tráfego na região. Durante a ação, dois viajantes foram baleados e diversos veículos foram incendiados.

O ataque resultou em uma fatalidade e dois feridos leves. As forças de segurança responderam com prontidão ao incidente, mas não conseguiram capturar os perpetradores. Reforços adicionais foram enviados à região, intensificando as medidas de segurança.

Um sobrevivente cristão do ataque relatou ter sido compelido a recitar a Shahada, uma declaração de fé islâmica, como forma de determinar sua religião. Ao alegar conhecimento limitado da Shahada devido à sua recente conversão ao Islã, ele foi liberado pelos agressores.

O modus operandi do Al-Shabab inclui a utilização da recitação da Shahada como ferramenta para identificar muçulmanos. Indivíduos incapazes de recitá-la com fluência ou que demonstram desconhecimento da mesma são frequentemente considerados cristãos e podem ser vítimas de violência ou até mesmo morte.

Impacto do Ataque

O ataque gerou um clima de medo e insegurança entre os habitantes da região, especialmente entre a comunidade cristã. O crescimento da igreja local foi prejudicado, e a economia da região também sofreu um impacto negativo, com o receio da população em utilizar as estradas devido à presença do Al-Shabab.

Chamado à Ação

Segundo o Gospel Prime, organizações cristãs estão mobilizando seus membros para interceder em oração pela segurança da região e pelo fim da perseguição aos cristãos em Lamu. Um apelo é feito para que pessoas de todo o mundo se unam em oração contra o terrorismo e a persecução religiosa em Lamu.

This is the answer to why the news every so often notes US drone strikes in Somalia, incidentally:

If people really gave a shit as to why the US does periodic drone strikes into Somalia they could easily find it, but they don't because that would require treating African events as things that matter for themselves. And to most of today's TikTok radicals they would sooner die than admit that their obsession with Palestine instead of UHC or free college is just a trend, and that there is, in fact, no actual concern with the events of this part of the world Al-Shabaab itself is the last trace of the decades of anarchy in Somalia, the local Al-Qaeda spinoff....and those US drone strikes are used to help a reviving state with a still-fragile army do what the state itself cannot, entirely, on its own and is perfectly willing to ask the US taxpayer and US missiles to do for it so it doesn't have to try.

UN helicopter captured by al-Shabaab after making emergency landing, UN spokesman confirms

By CNN, 10:52am Jan 11, 2024

A United Nations helicopter carrying several passengers has been captured by terror group al-Shabaab in Somalia after making an emergency landing in an area controlled by the group.

An assessment team is being prepared, UN Spokesman Stephane Dujarric said on Wednesday (Thursday AEDT), confirming the helicopter capture.

The UN emergency assistance helicopter made an emergency landing likely due to a mechanical issue in Somalia's Galmudug region, which is controlled by the al-Qaeda-affiliated terror group, according to the state-run Somali National News Agency (SONNA).

There were eight passengers on board, including foreigners, an a rescue is underway, according to SONNA.

The United Nations Assistance Mission in Somalia (UNSOM) said the helicopter "was conducting an air medical evacuation" and that more information would be released when it becomes available.

This comes weeks after Maalim Ayman, a senior leader of the al-Shabaab militant group operating in Somalia and Kenya, was killed on December 17 by a joint military operation between the Somali and US forces.

Somali Minister for Information Daud Aweis announced the death of Ayman on Friday.

"Ayman was accountable for planning multiple lethal terrorist attacks in Somalia and nearby countries," Aweis said in a statement on social media at the time.

Ayman is responsible for a terrorist attack on US and Kenyan personnel at Kenya's Manda Bay Airfield on January 5, 2020, US officials say.
