Fierce Clashes Erupt in Bulo Haji Between al-Shabaab and Somali Government Forces

Local sources described fierce, yet fleeting clashes with both factions deploying a range of heavy and light weaponry. The exact number of casualties is not confirmed since neither the military hierarchy nor Jubbaland’s high command has divulged any data on the losses.

The skirmish aligned with an official visit from Jubbaland dignitaries, led by Second Vice President Abdiqadir Haji Mohamud, who touched down in Bulo Haji a day earlier. They pressed the armed forces to persist in their mission against Al-Shabaab.
