Two senior Al-Shabaab leaders surrendered themselves to government troops in Lower Shabelle.
The two were identified as Abdi Mohamed Araaye (Abdirashid) and Khalif Mohamed Abdi (Khalid).
Their decision to surrender to the Somali army forces in the Bula Mare district in the Lower Shabelle region is a significant development.
This event could have implications for the security and stability in the region, potentially weakening al-Shabab’s operational capabilities.
