Mogadishu, (SONNA) – Somali National Army backed by International Partners killed over 100 terrorist members of Al-Shabaab including senior militants after fighting between the two sides in Galgadud area on Friday, SONNA reported.

The Deputy Minister of Information, Abdirahman Yusuf Al Adala told the Somali National News Agency SONNA that the forces recovered weapons during the operation, saying the terrorists could not even collect their dead bodies as they were defeated.

“Our forces took swift action against Al-Shabaab terrorists who were trying to carry out an attack. We killed over 100 Khawarij fighters including senior commanders and forced them to flee from their dead bodies. SNA forces are committed to destroying the terrorist network in this region and throughout the country”, Adala told SONNA.

The operation comes days before the Government plans to launch the second phase of the total war on the group fighters in the southwest and southern parts of the country.
