🚨 #Somalia | Al-Shabab Double IED Attack Kills More Than 10 Somalia Soldiers in Lower Shabelle More than 10 Somalia soldiers were killed and at least 15 others wounded yesterday after Al-Shabab militants targeted a Gorgor military troop carrier travelling with supplies from Mogadishu toward Mubarak. The vehicle was struck by a powerful IED on the road between Awdheegle and Mubarak, reportedly destroying the truck. Some reports put the overall casualties at more than 50, with all 42 soldiers travelling on the truck said to have been either killed or wounded. A second group of Somalia soldiers sent toward the scene as reinforcements was then hit by another explosive attack, causing further casualties. Al-Shabab claimed it killed 20 soldiers and wounded 32 others in the two attacks. Mubarak was captured by Ugandan and Somalia forces in March this year, but the surrounding corridor remains heavily contested, with Al-Shabab stepping up attacks across Lower Shabelle in recent weeks.
