Mogadishu, (SONNA) – The Somali National Army (SNA), specifically the 143rd Brigade, has carried out a successful operation in which they neutralized a notorious militant leader responsible for extorting local communities and conducting reconnaissance in the Beledul-Amiin area of the Afgoye district.

The militant, identified as Da’ud Mohamed Maleele, had been terrorizing residents of the Sabiid and Beledul-Amiin areas, particularly targeting farmers by extorting goods and forcibly taking food supplies.

The 143rd Brigade carried out the planned operation in Beledul-Amiin, where Maleele was killed, thus eliminating the threat to local civilians. The operation marks another significant success for the Somali National Army in its ongoing efforts to secure the country from militant groups.
