The attack took place on al-Shabaab positions near the town of Awdhegle. Awdhegle the strategic town was recently captured from Al shabaab.



"This successful mission is yet another demonstration of the growing and increasing capabilities of the Somali Security Forces and further proof that given the right conditions, the Somali National Army (SNA) is capable of executing successful anti-terror operations and can take over security responsibility of their countryā€¯, said Ambassador Francisco Madeira, the Head of AMISOM.

 

He explained that capturing and holding grounds are central to the delivery of justice to all Somalis who have been victims of the brutality of the terrorists for far too long.

 

He emphasised that AMISOM and Somali Security Forces will continue with liberating areas currently under the control of terrorists with the aim to restore the dignity of the people of Somalia and provide them with the opportunity for a better life.

 

In Awdheegle, the security forces are currently conducting patrols, securing critical infrastructure such as roads and schools.

 

Since April 2019, AMISOM and the Somali Security Forces through joint planning and operations have captured Al-Shabaab strongholds including Sabiid,Anole and Bariire in the Lower Shebelle region.
