| Follow up to this report from yesterday. Is this where elite Somali commandos known as The Shield are trained? |
[Jpost] Somali gunnies on Monday mounted an ambitious attack on a base where U.S. special forces train Somali commandos, while an Italian military convoy was hit in a separate blast in the capital Mogadishu.
No casualties were reported in either attack, U.S and Italian officials said.
Twin vehicle-borne bombs at the Baledogle base, where Somali forces and Ugandan peacekeepers are also housed, were followed by small arms fire, a security source and Somali police said. |
