Elite commandos storm lawless Somali war zone to snatch tribal leader

[Jacaylbaro]

FULL STORY

 

 

British commandos made a dramatic amphibious landing on Somalia’s war-torn shores to seize a tribal leader, the Daily Mail can reveal.

 

In an extraordinary operation in a lawless area teeming with bandits and pirates, elite Royal Marines launched Viking armoured vehicles from landing craft and pushed several miles inland to pick up the clan chief.

 

The unprecedented covert landing comes at a sensitive time in the troubled East African country as Al Qaeda-linked groups are training terror recruits and pirates are holding more than 100 hostages after seizing their boats.

Sending troops and equipment to shore just to arrest a clan leader will not solve the problem of piracy in the region.This is a waste of time.

Once near Laas Qorey when the British Utility ship came to Berbera, they continued on to Maydh etc, tried to go to foot near Laas Qorey with speedboats but had to retreat after receiving gunfire. The only proof you need is that none of these guys disputed it, a rarity.
