Beledweyn, (SONNA) – The Somali National Army (SNA) has intensified its operations against Al-Shabaab terrorists in the Hiiraan region, achieving significant victories that have weakened the group\u2019s grip on key areas.<\/p>\n
Among the territories recently liberated from Al-Shabaab militants are Beero Yabaal, Bur Abooto, Eega Galmay, Jidcillaan, and Caddow Gurey, all located in the Hiiraan region. These strategic gains mark a critical step in the ongoing campaign to dismantle the group\u2019s strongholds and restore stability to the region.<\/p>\n
Colonel Abdullahi Omar, commander of the 27th Division of the Somali National Army, spoke to state media, confirming that the operations had neutralized several Al-Shabaab terrorists and destroyed key bases used by the group. \u201cOur forces have delivered a decisive strike against the enemy, liberating vital areas and crippling their operational capabilities,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
In addition to the territorial gains, SNA forces seized a large cache of weapons and ammunition abandoned by the militants during their retreat. This seizure is expected to further degrade Al-Shabaab\u2019s ability to regroup and launch counterattacks.<\/p>\n
These operations are part of a broader, sustained effort by Somali security forces, supported by local and international partners, to eradicate Al-Shabaab\u2019s influence and restore peace to regions long plagued by the group\u2019s violence. The liberation of these areas is a significant milestone in the fight against terrorism and a testament to the resilience of the Somali people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
