8 Al-Shabaab Militants killed in an airstrike in Lower Shabelle region

Mogadishu (SONNA):On the 5th of April 2020,the Federal Government of Somalia, in partnership with the United
States Africa Command (AFRICOM), conducted an airstrike against Al-Shabaab militants in the vicinity of Mubarak, Somalia.

This precision airstrike killed eight (8) Al-Shabaab, terrorists.

The FGS and the US AFRICOM take significant measures to prevent civilian casualties in the fight against the Al-Qaeda affiliated terrorist puppet Al-Shabaab and investigate each reported allegation thoroughly.
At this time, no civilians are assessed to have been killed or injured in the attack.
The Federal Government of Somalia, the SNA, Danab, and its United States partners are committed to fighting al-Shabaab terrorists in order to prevent the deaths of innocent civilians that include men, women, and children in Somalia and its neighboring countries.

The efforts we take to protect and safeguard civilians dramatically contrast to the indiscriminate attacks that the cowards Al-Shabaab regularly conducts against the civilian populace of Somalia. The FGS, FMS, AMISOM, and the US AFRICOM partners will continue to liberate Somali cities from al-Shabaab tyranny just as we did for the city of Janaale.

The people of Janaale are grateful for the support of FGS and FMS and welcomed the courageous men and women who stepped forward to defend Somalia from the
Al-Qaeda puppet Al-Shabaab.
The United States AFRICOM forces, in support of the Federal Government of Somalia and its Member States, will continue to use all effective and appropriate methods to help provide safety for
the Somali people, including partnered military forces such as AMISOM and Somali Security Forces.

This strategic airstrike is in support of the FGS efforts to rid Somalia of the atrocities of Al-Shabaab and provide a better future for the Somali people to create security conditions to enhance governance and economic development.”
