Mogadishu: 20 massacred, 40 wounded as AMISOM attacks civilians

[Shaakirullaah]

At least 20 people were killed and 40 others wounded yesterday, after AMISOM forces backing the apostate troops of the puppet administration retaliated to mortars of the mujahideen.

Local ambulance services and emergency officials in Mogadishu said that more than 40 people were injured as the shells showered over residential areas in the mujahideen-held north of the city.

"More than 10 people died in our neighbourhood today. One of the artillery shells hit young boys who were playing football.

It wounded 12 of them, some of them are seriously injured," said witness Abdi Ahmed.

Witnesses said that shells also hit a number of other areas in the south of the capital.

Heavy fighting regularly rocks the port city, where the infidel-backed puppet administration controls little more than the palace, the airport, sea port and a few streets in between.

The innocent civilians mostly take the brunt of this fighting because of the kuffaar and their apostate puppets who deliberately massacre the civilians, shelling populated areas.

Your Excellencies:

 

As you have been following the latest crisis in Somalia, I regret to inform you that for the last week, AMISOM has been using tanks and heavy artillery indiscriminately against the

population of Mogadishu. As a result, according to the latest estimates, over 100 people, including children, women, and elderly have been killed; more than 300 others have been wounded, and about 3000 have fled their homes, where the Ethiopian troops and the Transitional Federal Government (TFG) militias have been looting their homes.

 

Before this time, committing this type of massacre has been limited to the Ethiopian occupation troops and the TFG militias. However, it is now apparent that AMISOM is also

adopting this evil practice. The latest carnage is a clear indication that AMISOM is assisting Ethiopia to achieve its objective of occupying Somalia and denying the Somali people

their fundamental rights of life, liberty and property.

 

AMISOM spokesman has claimed that the troops were defending themselves from the attack of some insurgent group(s)!! But the available evidence regarding the directions and the

distance of the shelling does not support this argument. It is obvious that AMISOM had used unnecessary force and targeted heavily populated quarters and markets far away from the fighting area(s) which can only be taken as a deliberate mass killing.

Since AMISOM had not come with the consent of the Somali people, lately, we have been spending a significant amount of time and efforts to convince our people to accept AMISOM

as a peace keeping force, but the latest terror has seriously damaged the image and the mission of AMISON in Somalia. Moreover, it will most likely have a profound negative effect on the on-going UN brokered talks in Djibouti.

 

We consider this AMISOM action as a war crime; therefore, we urgently request the UN as well as AU to send an impartial fact find mission at the earliest possible time to

investigate these atrocities and swiftly bring the culprits to justice.

"…We might demand from IGAD states not to have international forces intervene in Somalia…There is no need for international forces in Somalia. The problem is ended. The Somali people are living in safety and (peace)..."

[General Duke]

They are all hypocrites, those who sent the mortars and the Sharif Hotel who used to defend the actions of Al Kebaab.

 

The only question is who is worse?
