Game changer Posted August 26, 2023 An other theory is , Somaliland has already moved out from goojacade and locals stormed or ambushed the dispersed troops on the way , and the small remains in goojacade. SSC received this information prior the attack. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Che -Guevara Posted August 26, 2023 Here's brief explanation. It seems they panicked when the first base fell. SSC were already to set up to ambush when they ran off West. Bootaan try to regroup but it was late. 15 minutes ago, Game changer said: Every thing that has happened seems un usual. For the last 6 months SSC didn't manage to take over positions from somaliland, they didn't capture one single POW or even vehicles . Suddenly they have managed to defeat somaliland army in every battlefield, without using drones or any other technology. Somaliland Army technicals are well designed for defensive battles. So even if they retreat they are better positioned to shoot the pursuing enemies. What happened Is God's work , here is my theory 1. SSC forces were numerous , the whole city and villages were mobilized . 2. They didn't use any vihicles when they were approaching somaliland army positions to avoid guuxa. Instead they get closer to the bases and used large number of RPGs and bazookas to damage somaliland armored vihicles. 3. The timing was perfect , as somaliland forces couldn't see what's to coming to them , especially when the enemies are not using technicals. You can't see individuals 4 in the morning. Here's a brief explanation Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There were two secret missions: a) Small units, with snipers, positioned closely on SL defences, watching their movements, and b) Another mission, which destroyed SL communication command centre earlier in the night. Large units and heavy weapons joined the battle at daybreak. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

galbeedi Posted August 26, 2023 One very strange thing is general Bootaan. The way he spoke and how he is treated is very strange. As soon as he was captured, he said, " Haddiii guriga Madaxweynaha, ama ku xigeenks ama Graad Jaamac midkaad doontaan i geeye. The Garaads were talking about threating the prisons well which normal. Yet this general Bootaan is now at the house of the vice president. He said " I am at the house of the vice president, members of parliament are here, Waa la ii shaqaynayyaa" This Khaatumo SSC isn't yet an organized administration. This kind of moves might even create unwanted friction among themselves. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HJ has a lot of men and material. There's already over fight over who he gets what. There were some skirmishes in Caynaba. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Illyria Posted August 26, 2023 Young men, who captured him at first did not even know him. He is spending the night in prison in Las Anod tonight, and is being transferred to a large prison in Qardho. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He has been operating every village in sool over the last 15 years. Cali barre, bootaan and general doolal , are the most recognisable individuals in the Army , even before the war .

Possibly recognisable when in uniform, but did you see the state of him when arrested? It took us a while to be certain, as we initially thought it was not him - 99% of HJ are bold with the same dark complexion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
