Al-Shabab battles Somalia’s army for strategic military base

Heavy fighting broke out in Somalia as the militant group Al-Shabab launched a determined assault on a key military base. The base, considered strategic for controlling the region, quickly became the epicenter of a violent confrontation between Al-Shabab fighters and Somalia’s national army. Local sources report that clashes intensified early in the morning, with both sides employing heavy weaponry. The Somali government responded by sending reinforcements to defend the base and secure the area. Observers say that Al-Shabab’s attempt to seize the military base underscores the group's persistent threat and capability to disrupt security in Somalia. Despite recent gains by government forces, Al-Shabab continues to stage attacks, targeting military sites and trying to undermine government control. National officials have condemned the attack, promising a robust response to secure the region and prevent further incursions.
