Somalia: 17 killed in renewed clashes near Kismayo

5 Oct 5, 2009 - 3:30:46 PM

 

KISMAYO, Somalia Oct 6 (Garowe Online) - At least 17 people were killed in southern Somalia during a series of battles overnight Sunday and Monday morning, Radio Garowe reports.

 

The fighting erupted Sunday night in Janay Abdalla village around 50km from the southern port of Kismayo between two Somali rebel factions, Al Shabaab and Hizbul Islam.

 

Again, on Monday morning, renewed clashes erupted around Janay Abdalla village with unconfirmed reports saying Al Shabaab fighters were pushed back.

 

Most of the 17 dead victims were fighters, but local sources said some civilians were among 20 wounded persons. Hundreds of civilians have fled the area.

 

Sheikh Hassan Yakub, the Al Shabaab spokesman in Kismayo, confirmed the fighting to reporters but declined to mention casualties on their side.

 

"The fighting last night and this morning [Monday] was very intense and both sides have suffered," Sheikh Yakub told reporters in Kismayo.

 

Wounded persons were brought to medical centers in Kismayo and Afmadow, a town located northwest of Kismayo near the Kenyan border and controlled by Hizbul Islam.

 

Reliable sources tell Garowe Online that Hizbul Islam fighters captured 8 Al Shabaab members during the fighting, including three wounded fighters. A foreign fighter described as a Ugandan national was captured wounded, according to unconfirmed reports attributed to Hizbul Islam sources.

 

Further, Hizbul Islam fighters burned two armed trucks belonging to Al Shabaab and captured two other armed trucks during Monday's battle. Al Shabaab's spokesman neither confirmed nor denied the claims.

 

Sheikh Ahmed Madobe, the commander of Hizbul Islam rebels in Lower Jubba region, is reportedly leading Hizbul Islam forces on the ground and has vowed to recapture Kismayo.

 

Al Shabaab fighters captured members of Hizbul Islam during last Thursday's battle in Kismayo, when Al Shabaab seized control of the strategic port town and expelled Hizbul Islam fighters.

 

According to sources, Al Shabaab's administrators have appealed to clan leaders to bring members of Hizbul Islam wounded during Thursday's battle to be brought to the Kismayo hospital for treatment after pledging to keep the wounded fighters safe.

 

The armed clashes come on the heels of ongoing talks between the top leaders of Hizbul Islam and Al Shabaab in the outskirts of Mogadishu, the Somali capital.

 

Meanwhile, insurgent attacks in Mogadishu targeting Somali government forces and African peacekeepers (AMISOM) have decreased since the eruption of war between Hizbul Islam and Al Shabaab, two insurgent groups who have jointly waged an insurgency against the Somali government since May.

Toll from clashes in Somali port hits 22: resident

(AFP) – 4 days ago

 

MOGADISHU — At least 22 people, including civilians, died in Thursday's clashes between two Islamist factions in the southern Somali port city of Kismayo, Sheikh Abdi Haji Abdullahi, a local resident told AFP.

 

The fighting was initially thought to have left 10 dead.

 

"The bodies of a further 12 people killed in the violence in Kismayo have been recovered," he said on Friday, explaining that the dozen were in addition to the toll of 10 previously reported.

 

Local resident Abdiweli Mohamud said those recovered from the scene of the battle included "fighters as well as civilians".

 

"The number of wounded are more than 70, including some with very serious injuries," Mohamud said.

 

Thursday's fighting pitted the Al Qaeda-inspired Shebab against the Hezb al-Islam group and started when the Shebab launched a dawn offensive, residents said. Both parties claimed the upper hand when fighting ended.

 

The city, about 300 kilometres (185 miles) south of Mogadishu, was wrested from government forces in August 2008 and has been an Islamist bastion ever since, but relations between the two groups have soured in recent weeks.

 

The two factions agreed to share power in Kismayo, with each governing for six months alternatively, but clan politics intervened and the rotation failed when the Shebab refused to relinquish the administration.

 

Kismayo had been relatively quiet until Thursday. On Friday residents said the city was tense but calm.
