SNA Foil Al-Shabaab Attack in Galmudug State

Somali National Army (SNA) foiled an attack by Al-Shabaab terrorists in Galmudug state on Friday.

Reports show that terrorists attempted to attack an army base in Qayib, a village in the regional state of Galmudug.

The attack took place early on Friday morning.

However, SNA soldiers repelled the terrorists.

Consequently, a number of Al-Shabaab militants lost their lives in the deadly attack after SNA forces destroyed a Vehicle Based Improvised Explosive Device (VBIED) that they were using.

SNTV Daljir, a new channel launched by the state broadcaster this week, confirmed the incident.
