Djiboutian President Condemns Deadly Attack against UAE Soldiers in Mogadishu

President Ismail Omar Guelleh of Djibouti has spoken out strongly against yesterday’s terror attack in Mogadishu against officers from the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

UAE personnel were at military base in Mogadishu when one of the trainees shot and killed them.

Al-Shabaab claimed responsibility for the attack that caused the deaths of at least four UAE military officers.

President Guelleh described the terrorist attack as “heinous.”

He vowed that Djibouti would not cease standing with Somalia to secure the entire country from Al-Shabaab’s terror.
