Kenyan Forces crossing its border into Somalia have allegedly destroyed Hormud Telecom building

There was no communication service into area after being cut off in an attack carried out by Kenyan forces, who crossed its border along Somalia.

Last month, Kenyan forces destroyed Hormud Telecom branch building near border town, a witness Faisa Hussein said.

Hussein says she had witnessed up to 10 people, who were shot and killed by Kenyan forces over unknown reason, after an attack on Hormud Telecom headquarters near border town.

Two Hormud security guards were among those who were killed in the attack, according to Somali colonel Aden Rufle.

He said the Kenyan forces serving under African Union mission in Somalia had also kidnapped 5 girls from Baladhawo town, and then raped in Kenya’s northeast town of Mandera.

There was no comment from Kenyan Defense Forces’ command in Nairobi over the deliberately property destruction and sexually violence near Somali border along Kenya.

In 2011, Nairobi has sent its troops into Somalia to fight against Al-Shabab in retaliation for a wave of kidnappings of foreigners that has blighted its tourism industry.

Kenyan forces crossed its border into Somalia to launch operations against Al-Shabab, in a bid to thwart orchestrated attacks by Al Qaeda-inspired group in Somalia.
