Mogadishu, (SONNA) – The Somali National Army (SNA) has foiled an attack launched by Al-Shabaab militants in the Jabad Godane area of the Middle Shabelle region

The SNA now has full control of the area, after dealing the enemy a decisive blow and inflicting heavy losses.
A large-scale operation is currently underway, combining clearance and security measures, to eliminate the remaining militants hiding in the area and to prevent any attempt to regroup or disrupt the peace of local communities.

The Somali National Army reiterates its firm resolve to continue operations against Al-Shabaab in order to safeguard security and protect the Somali people.
