Jabhad Posted January 19, 2007 Mortars hit Somalia's presidential palace Friday January 19, 06:35 PM MOGADISHU (Reuters) - At least two mortars slammed into Somalia's presidential palace on Friday night as explosions and gunfire rocked Mogadishu in the latest outbreak of violence in chaotic Somalia, witnesses and officials said. "I can confirm two mortars have hit Villa Somalia," a senior government source told Reuters, of the building where President Abdullahi Yusuf stays. "We do not have word yet if there were casualties or (Advertisement) not." More than a dozen explosions boomed across Mogadishu and gunfire rattled out to break a lull in the violence of several days in the coastal capital of the Horn of Africa nation. "I have heard more than a dozen explosions ... now there is gunfire," said Reuters reporter Sahal Abdulle. Ethiopian troops, who helped the Somali interim government drive Islamists out of Mogadishu over the New Year, have in past days been the target of attacks from unknown groups. Suspicion has fallen on remnants of the defeated Islamists, who vowed to launch guerrilla strikes against the Ethiopians whom they regard as illegitimate occupiers of Somalia. Two former Islamists told Reuters earlier on Friday they had infiltrated Mogadishu again and planned to attack Villa Somalia and other targets. Yusuf came to Mogadishu just days ago to take up residence in the already bullet- and mortar-scarred building. It was not known if the 72-year-old former soldier was in the compound during Friday's attack. Addis Ababa wants to pull its troops out of neighbouring Somalia within days. But analysts say that risks leaving a power vacuum that could see the Horn of Africa nation slide back into anarchy. The African Union is trying to muster a peacekeeping force.

Jabhad Posted January 19, 2007 Gunfire rings out from presidential compound in Somali capital Posted 1/19/2007 1:48 PM ET E-mail | Save | Print | Subscribe to stories like this MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) — Government troops battled gunmen who attacked the Somali president's palace in central Mogadishu Friday night, spreading panic around the capital. The attackers fired three mortars into the presidential compound and then engaged guards in a 30-minute firefight, residents said. The president and prime minister were in Mogadishu, but their whereabouts were unclear and government officials did not immediately answer their phones. Khadra Dahir Osman, who lives next to the presidential compound, which occupies a hill overlooking Mogadishu, said he fled to his brother's home, panic-stricken. The internationally recognized government — with key military backing from Ethiopia — had managed to drive an Islamic movement that had challenged it for power out of Mogadishu and much of the rest of southern Somalia. But the potential for violence remains great because of clan rivalries, resentment of the government's Ethiopian backers and a threat of guerrilla war from remnants of the Islamic movement. Prime Minister Ali Mohamed Gedi arrived in Mogadishu Dec. 29, a day after the Islamic movement's fighters abandoned the capital. President Abdullahi Yusuf arrived Jan. 8. Since then, their government has struggled to restore order to a capital that has known little but chaos and violence for decades. Copyright 2007 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Naxar Nugaaleed Posted January 19, 2007 N-syl, bilaash bat uu dabaldegeysa. This will only help the government. Mostly, its just the sort of news it could use in its deplomatic efforts to secure african peace keepers. Secondly, if a pretense was needed at all, this justifies whatever action the president takes to disarm xamar and that he now has increased constitutional authority to deal with instability, I am sure he will take care of this little problem.
