MOGADISHU (Halbeeg News) – Somali National Intelligence Agency (Nisa) has recovered assorted weapons and ammunition at a house in Mogadishu.
According to a statement, the forces conducted a covert operation in the Dharkinley district of Banadir region where they inspected a house in the district.
The forces arrested a woman who reportedly hid weapons and explosive devices inside her house.
The development comes barely two days after Somali president called on residents of Benadir region to cooperate with the government in the fight against al-Shabaab.
The President urged the residents to identify and report to the authorities the sympathizers and al-Shabaab suspects.
“I’m calling to you, the people of Mogadishu, the Kharijites (renegades) are amongst you… so flush them out. They are in your houses, they are your neighbours, in cars that pass you by,” he said. “I want us to commit today to flush them out, they are like bedbugs under our clothes.”
The president said that the people of Mogadishu were tired of al-Shabaab attacks and assassinations.
“The people are tired of massacres, killings, and all kinds of misdeeds and they are now saying to al-Shabaab: ‘Enough is enough’,” Mohamud said.
