The Somali National Armed Forces, in coordination with international partners, carried out a planned airstrike today in the Ugunji area of Lower Shabelle region, targeting Al-Shabaab terrorists who were regrouping to orchestrate attacks against Somali civilians.
The operation killed six Al-Shabaab militants and destroyed weapons and equipment used by the terrorists.
The Ministry of Defence and the Command of the Somali National Armed Forces reaffirm their commitment to intensifying operations against the remnants of terrorist groups and targeting them wherever they hide, in order to eliminate the threat they pose to the Somali people.
