The Danab Special Forces of the Somali National Army carried out a planned operation last night in the town of Sablaale in the Lower Shabelle region, targeting locations where Al-Shabaab militants were present.
The operation resulted in the death of seven terrorists affiliated with Al-Shabaab, including a leader involved in organizing the group's militia.
Additionally, the forces destroyed two locations that Al-Shabaab used for training and spreading extremist ideologies, where they would manipulate and encourage people to commit terrorist acts.
The Ministry of Defense of the Federal Government of Somalia and the Command of the Somali National Army reaffirm that they will continue operations targeting leaders, militias, and Al-Shabaab bases until the threat they pose to the Somali people is eliminated.
