The transitional federal government of Somalia on Sunday displayed an Al shabaab militant killed in overnight Mogadishu fighting.
Abdullahi Hirsi Wardhere, Mogadishu’s Bondhere district commissioner invited a group of journalists to see the body of a murdered Al shabaab fighter.
Wardhere said Al shabaab militant fighters on Sunday night attacked government and African Union peacekeepers’ military bases in northern parts of Mogadishu.
“A number of wounded and dead militant bodies had been dragged by the Al shabaab extremist group during the gun-battle” the district commissioner told reporters.
During the press conference, cross fire and stay bullets could still be heard as the region is rife for insurgent fighting.
Al shabaab was not immediately available for comments about government’s claim.
At least four people have died and seven others are listed wounded after Al shabaab fighters and Somali government forces supported by militarily by African Union peacekeepers clashed in Somalia’s capital of Mogadishu, according to witnesses.
Most of the fighting and bombardments took place in Bondhere, a district in northern Mogadishu.
Residents in the middle of the fighting are reporting the confrontations, which erupted north of Benadir region, began early Sunday morning and were joined with the sound of the heavy crackling of machine gun-fire and artillery barrages. ahl
