One civilian person was injured in the fighting so far. “The repel militia armed with heavy weapons and battle-vehicles attacked the town from four directions this morning and later seized the control while the government forces withdrew the town,” Mohumad Hassan, a local resident told Somalinet. The situation is now quiet and life resumed normal he added. Shortly after the taker over by the Islamists, the people in the town began rallying on the streets and looted the local government offices and the police station. Recently there have been frequent attacks by the suspected Islamists on the government positions in Hiran regions. No word yet from the government side on the latest attack in which the repels took over Bulo-Burde. |
