Government forces take control of Guriel and Mataban towns

Government forces have taken control of Dhusamareb, Guriel and Mataban districts from Alhusuna Waal Jamaa.

According to reports government forces especially the 21st Division and NISA have taken over security in the district following the withdrawal of Ahlu Sunna militias.

The forces took charge of Mataban Saturday after overpowering Alhusuna forces in the ara.

Alhusuna said last month it had withdrawn from a deal with the federal government to integrate its forces with the national security forces.
