Mogadishu. Africa Union Support and Stablisation Mission in Somalia (AUSSOM) Uganda Peoples Defence Forces (UPDF) Troops together with the Somali National Army (SNA), have launched Operation “SILENT STORM” against Al-Shabaab to recapture the previously lost Forward Operating Bases (FOBs) of Sabiid Anole, Aw Degeele and Bariire. The operation has resulted in the capture of scores of Al-Shabaab fighters along with their weapons including 12.7mm Anti-Aircraft Machine gun (AAMG) parts in the area of Sabiid Anole. AUSSOM UPDF and SNA forces are carrying out a sustained joint operation to dislodge the terrorists from Sabiid Anole and the operation is ongoing. The operation has been massively welcomed and supported by the locals. AUSSOM UPDF and SNA troops are highly commended for their bravery, coordination and dedication to securing Somalia. Their relentless efforts to degrade and eliminate Al-Shabaab’s presence are instrumental in ensuring peace, security, and stability in the region. The joint forces’ commitment to justice and their unwavering determination to protect the Somali people and the broader African community are truly commendable.
