Somalia

Twelve civilians were killed in Mogadishu after Somali insurgents fired mortars at the presidential palace and attacked African Union bases. Shabaab conducted security operations against bandits on the main road that links Mogadishu to Km50 and signed a “total peace” agreement with the Daud clan in the middle region of Shabelle in southern Somalia. Uganda’s president wants peacekeepers in the Shabaab-controlled towns of Kismayo and Baidoa.
