US military forces have conducted two raids on foreign countries, targeting senior terrorist leaders. In Somalia, US Navy Seals stormed the villa of a leader of the al-Shabab militant group responsible for the deadly attack on a Nairobi shopping mall last month. And another operation was carried out in the Libyan capital, Tripoli, where the military seized a suspect in the 1998 U.S. embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania.

Mogadishu (24/10/2011) -- Since the change of military tactics by Harakat Al-Shabaab Al Mujahideen on the 6th of August 2011, the battle for Mogadishu has taken on an entirely new dimension. The recent battles have lured the AU forces, who previously sought refuge behind their heavily fortified bases and underground bunkers, out into the open; thereby exposing their intense vulnerabilities and proving their inability to fight in an urban area.nnThe massacre of more than 150 Burundian troops in the battle of Dayniile, Northern Mogadishu, on Thursday 20th October marked the success of the Mujahideen's enhanced military strategy and stands as a true testament to the diversified military operations raging in Mogadishu.nnAnd while the media, both local and international, have recorded the video footage of the 76 slain Burundian soldiers displayed by the Mujahideen, complete in their AU uniform and badges, AMISOM propagandists chose to deny the deaths of their own comrades in order to mislead the families of the dead soldiers.nnThe recent Mogadishu massacre is indeed exemplary of the unforgiving fate that awaits every foreign invader in Mogadishu, but our message is now specific to the people of Burundi.nnYour sons continue to perpetrate unspeakable atrocities against our innocent families in Somalia. And despite our persistent demands for the withdrawal of your troops, you remain obliviously adamant that your sons are serving a just cause by killing thousands of innocent men, women and children. The indiscriminate shelling carried out by your troops has displaced over a million people from their homes and has rendered them refugees in their own country.nnHalf of our children do not attend schools as your troops continue to demolish and destroy our buildings and infrastructure. And in the course of these battles, hundreds of your sons have been killed in Mogadishu while fighting as mercenaries for a worthless cause and some are still being held captive.nThe recent deaths of your sons in Mogadishu serve as a just reward for the carnage that they have caused in the streets of Mogadishu and their corpses are now rotting in a distant land without even a funeral ceremony. Know that the indomitable people of Mogadishu will continue to massacre your troops as long as the streets of Mogadishu remain steeped in the blood of their loved ones.nnYou now have a choice to make. Either you call for the immediate withdrawal of your troops from our country or you shall receive the bodies of your remaining sons delivered to you in bags. Think long. Think hard. Think of your son's futures.nnPress OfficenHarakat Al-Shabaab Al Mujahideen Less

The Somali National Army and the African Union Mission to Somalia patrolled the town of Qoryooley on Sunday, some 100 kilometers from the Somali capital Mogadishu. It comes following the town's liberation from Al Shabaab militants a day earlier. The African Union said a two-pronged attacked surprised the Islamist militant group. The Somali National Army Deputy Chief of Defense Forces had this message for the militants. (SOUNDBITE) (Somali) SNA DEPUTY CHIEF OF DEFENSE FORCES, GENERAL ABDIRIZAQ ELMI, SAYING: "I would like to send a message to the people who are still in Al Shabaab: The time of Shabaab is over. We call on the Somali youth trapped in Al Shabaab to go back to their communities and take the amnesty offered by the Somali president and the people." A number of Al Shabaab insurgents were killed during the operation, the African Union says. It's part of an offensive to liberate parts of Somalia still reportedly under the control of Al Sh Less

ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION) Al Qaeda-linked militants attacked Somalia's parliament on Saturday (May 24), killing at least four people in a bomb and gun assault, the Islamist group and police said. "A car bomb exploded at the gate of the parliament house - then it was followed by a suicide bomber explosion. So far we have confirmed four policemen dead," a police colonel, Farah Hussein, told Reuters. "The lawmakers and the other workers were rescued as soon as the car bomb exploded. But the terrorists are still firing from inside a mosque nearby." A Reuters witness who saw four bodies on the ground and one wounded man fleeing the scene said the fighting was ongoing. Al Shabaab, the al Qaeda-affiliated group that was pushed out of the capital about two years ago and has since waged a sustained guerrilla campaign, said it had launched the attack. "We are behind the suicide bombing, explosions and the fighting inside the so-called Somali parliament house Less

He is one of Washington’s most-wanted men. But it remains unclear whether Ahmed Abdi Godane, the leader of the Islamist group al Shabaab, was killed in a US military airstrike in Somalia on Monday.Several militants are thought to have died, south of Mogadishu, when manned and unmanned aircraft attacked an encampment of the group behind last year’s Nairobi shopping mall massacre.Godane however was the main target.Some US officials privately said they believed he was killed in the strike, but the US government was not ready to confirm that – even as it acknowledged the significance his death would have in the fight against the al Qaeda-linked group.“If he was killed, this is a very significant blow to their network, to their organisation and, we believe, to their ability to continue to conduct terrorist attacks,” Pentagon spokesman, Rear Admiral John Kirby, told reporters.Somali troops and an African Union mission are waging an offensive to recapture areas held by the Islamists – seizing weapons they left behind. Al Shabaab, which wants to impose its own strict version of Islam, was driven out of the capital Mogadishu by peacekeeping forces. Less

Kenya’s interior ministry said the country’s security services had killed two al Shabaab fighters and intensified their rescue operation to free students taken hostage by the Somali group in Garissa on Thursday. #GarissaAttack update: Two terrorists have been neutralised in the ongoing operation. Security agencies intensify rescue operation.— InteriorCNG Ministry (@InteriorKE) April 2, 2015 In another tweet it clarified that “neutralised” is “security speak for killed.” Several hours into the incident, Interior Minister Joseph Nkaissery told reporters in Garissa that the death toll was at least 70, with 79 wounded, but the siege was almost over. About 500 out of 815 students were accounted for, he said. He did not specify precisely how many students, staff or security personnel had died but said four al Shabaab fighters were killed. However, he cautioned that “the operation is ongoing, anything can happen”. Al Shabaab, who carried out the deadly attack on the Westgate Less

Gunmen stormed a shopping mall in the Kenyan capital Nairobi over the weekend, killing at least 30 people including children and sending scores fleeing in panic, in an attack claimed by the Somali Islamist group al Shabaab.nShooting continued hours after the initial assault as troops surrounded the Westgate mall and police and soldiers combed the building, hunting the attackers shop by shop. A police officer inside the building said the gunmen were barricaded inside a supermarket and were holding dozens hostage. The assault was the single biggest attack in Kenya since al Qaeda's east Africa cell bombed the U.S. embassy in Nairobi in 1998, killing more than 200 people. In 2002, the same militant cell attacked an Israeli-owned hotel and tried to shoot down an Israeli jet in a coordinated attack. Less
