The message sent from a Somalia-based number did not issue any threat. Terror group Al-Shabaab had recently attacked the Hayat Hotel in Mogadishu, Somalia’s capital.

Maalmo kahor, Madaxweyne Xasan Sheekh ayaa ku dhawaaqay dagaal aan waxba lala harin, oo dowladda ku qaadi doonto Kooxda Al-Shabaab kadib weerarkii Hayat hotel.

The country is now facing its worst drought in 40 years which affected more than 7 million people, who are mostly farmers and pastoralists who migrated to the big cities in search of food and water.

Xasan Sheekh ayaa xusay in Ciidanka ay u diyaar-garoobeen dagaalka dalka lagu xoreynayo, isagoo tusaale usoo qaatay howlgallada ka socda gobolka Hiiraan, oo Al-Shabaab meel badan looga saarey dhawaan.

The Governor of Hiran, Ali Jeyte Osman, who is part of the war praised the forces for their success in the operation, calling on them to continue until they clear the entire region.

The Uganda soldiers of the ATMIS contingent which are in charge of the state house’s security on Monday conducted a search at the offices of president Hassan Sheikh and PM Hamza Abdi Barre.

An Al-Shabaab prosecutor said the men were convicted of involvement in intelligence operations in the militants' strongholds that led to US military airstrikes that killed top commanders.

Although the condition of the hotel that was attacked is normal, the hotel was badly damaged after the government forces hit it with heavy weapons.

Al-Shabaab has lost key leaders in the US airstrikes, including its leader Ahmed Godane and founder Aden Ayro.

The commander noted that the operations underway across the country to fight against Al-Shabaab will continue until the militants are removed from their final pockets.

He said that the Federal Government of Somalia is determined to get rid of the Al-Shabaab Courts in the Lower Shabelle and Mogadishu within two years.

The purpose of the trip of these officials is to observe the situation of the people in Bardale district and how to carry out operations against the Al-Shabaab Organization.
