GOOBJOOG NEWS | MOGADISHU: Somalia’s intelligence agency has said its elite Gaashaan unit killed five Al-Shabaab fighters during a security operation in the Omar Beere area of the country’s southern Lower Shabelle region.

The National Intelligence and Security Agency (NISA) said its forces also destroyed militant hideouts and strategic positions used by the group.

The operation is part of a broader offensive aimed at dismantling Al-Shabaab’s network and preventing attacks on civilians and infrastructure, NISA said in a statement.

Security forces have stepped up operations across the country in recent months, as Somalia intensifies efforts to restore stability after years of conflict.
