Recommended Posts

As Somali government started anti-Al Shabaab operations in Mogadishu and some of Somali regions, Al shabaab movement commenced having consultations with former Somali military officials who took part in 1977 war Somalia has with neighboring Ethiopia.

 

In Mogadishu, Al shabaab has lost key military basses after it had came under huge offensive from Somali government troops backed militarily by the African union peacekeepers.

 

Sheikh Mokhtar Robow Ali better known as Abu Mansur, a high ranking Al Shabaab official, has called Somalia's former military officials to join Al shabaab and take part in its battles against Somalia's fragile UN backed government and AU forces in Mogadishu.

 

The call of Al shabaab official comes as they are very hectic in doing more efforts to accumulate more fighters to fight off and rebel government's new attacks.

 

Last week, Somali army supported by AU forces has taken control former defense ministry building in Mogadishu's Warshadaha Street, a crucial military position by the insurgent.
