GOOBJOOG NEWS|GALGADUD: Al-Shabaab militants are reported to have set ablaze several houses belonging to civilians in the Bahdo area of Galgadud on Monday night.

The militants are said to have descended at the dead of the night on Biyo Deys and Megag Duub villages and razed several houses to the ground, leaving the victims of the attack to sleep in the cold.

Locals are said to have been angered by the latest turn of events and have vowed to take revenge. Confirmed reports say the affected people have armed themselves in readiness to fight against the terrorist group that has now made the region devoid of peace.

Just a few days ago, Al-Shabaab waged war in the areas under Galgadud, leaving a trail of destruction after blowing up water wells, boreholes, and telecommunication masts.
