The capture of Dhayoow is just one in a series of actions aimed at rooting out Al-Shabaab militants in the Bay region. A dozen members of the group were recently seized in military operations in and around Baidoa, the interim headquarters of South West Somalia.
These operations signal a concerted effort to combat Al-Shabaab in the Bay and Bakool areas. Collaboration between the army, local inhabitants, and South West state security is pivotal in eradicating the militant group’s influence.
