[Uthman1]

Where are those men from TFG who refused to settle the problem in a peacefull manner. Now watch as UIC spread their power to central Somalia.

At least 13 people have been killed as Islamist gunmen stormed a new town in central Somalia, seizing it from a warlord allied with the weak government after fierce fighting.

.

A day after the government rejected a new peace initiative aimed at averting all-out war, the powerful Somali Islamist movement pushed to their furthest north, taking the town of Bandiradley in central Mudug region, they said Sunday.

.

The seizure, certain to exacerbate already sky-high tensions with the government, brings the Islamists to less than 100 kilometers (60 miles) of the semi-autonomous enclave of Puntland, which has vowed to resist their advance.

.

"We have taken control of Bandiradley after heavy fighting," said Mohamed Mohamud Jama, the Islamist spokesman in Mudug, where the town, about 700 kilometers (440 miles) north of Mogadishu, is located.

.

He told AFP by phone from Bandiradley that the Islamists would now march on Galkayo, a major Puntland town about 70 kilometers north.

.

Such a move would be a major escalation in the deterioriating situation in Somalia that diplomats and analysts fear could erupt in all-out war and again engulf the Horn of Africa region in bloody conflict.

.

Bandiradley residents said at least 13 fighters were killed in the fighting for the town, five Islamists and eight loyal to ex-Mogadishu warlord Abdi Hassan Awale Qeybdiid.

.

Local residents said Qeybdiid's men had lost seven machine gun-mounted pick-ups and two aging tanks in the battle, adding the Islamists had lost three armored vehicles.

.

A commander for Qeybdiid's militia admitted a retreat, but maintained it was tactical and not a defeat.

.

"They attacked our bases around Bandiradley airfield and we had retreated a bit from the zone although we did not lose the fight," commander Said Dhegoweyne told AFP. He said his side lost some men but did not have a figure.

.

Qeybdiid, a former member of a now-defunct US-backed warlord alliance ousted from Mogadishu by the Islamists in June, is supported by the interim government, Puntland's regional administration and neighboring Ethiopia.

.

Sporadic fighting began around Bandiradley on Monday, when Qeybdiid's forces launched attacks on Islamists massing in the area.

.

"They attacked us and we retaliated," Jama, the Islamist commander said Sunday. "The result is clear, they are losers and the Islamic courts will win day-by-day until Sharia law is implemented all over the country."

.

The Islamists have declared holy war on Ethiopian troops sent to support the government, which Addis Ababa maintains number only a few hundred military advisers.

.

Mainly Christian Ethiopia has vowed to defend itself and the transitional administration from attacks by the Islamists, some of whom are accused of links with international terrorism and Al-Qaeda.

.

The presence of their forces in Somalia is a major sticking point in urgent efforts to avert full-on war that many fear could draw in Ethiopia and its arch-foe neighbor Eritrea, which denies reports of having 2,000 troops there.

.

The Islamists have rapidly expanded their territory since taking Mogadishu and now control nearly all of southern and central Somalia. They are demanding the withdrawal of the Ethiopians to resume peace talks.

.

The last round of negotiations collapsed earlier this month in Sudan over that issue and Islamist demands for the removal as co-mediator of Kenya, which along with Ethiopia backs a government call for regional peacekeepers.
