Mogadishu (01/08/2011) - The Mujahideen have today carried out a daring raid inside an African Union soldiers’ base in Wardhiigley district of Mogadishu, killing 3 American trainers, 8 Ugandan commanders and injuring more than a dozen of the AMISOM force. Sheikh Ali Mohamoud Rage, the official spokesman for the Mujahideen said:
‘Today Allah as enabled the Mujahideen to attack the African Union bases recently established in Xamar Bile, where both AU forces and their American were based. We hereby confirm that three American trainers and 8 AU commanders were killed in the raid.
We have already displayed the corpses of the slain Ugandan soldiers to the media yesterday and today Allah has enabled the Mujahideen to add three more Americans to the list; that is in addition to the American sniper killed in yesterday’s battle.’
This heroic raid comes at a time when the African mercenaries have launched an offensive in Mogadishu in order to displace the remaining citizens from the capital city during this Holy Month of Ramadan.
Since the launch of their failed offensive in Mogadishu, on Thursday 28 July 2011, the AMISOM forces have lost more than 20 soldiers, including some high ranking officers and battalion commanders. Three of the corpses of the slain soldiers are still in the hands of the Mujahideen.
While clearly undermining the capacity of the Ugandan and Burundian soldiers to maneuver and safely settle in Mogadishu, these raids were carried out by the Mujahideen in order to rescue and open a safe passage for the tens of thousands of displaced people forcefully settled near Mogadishu’s frontlines by AMISOM forces.
