The 20-hour siege in Somalia’s capital ended last evening after Somali forces neutralized three militants who staged the attack.
The terrorists used civilians as human shields staging the longest attack since Al-Shabaab was forced out of Mogadishu in 2011.
On October 14, 2017 a truck bomb in Mogadishu claimed the lives of at least 300 people prompting the United States military to increase airstrikes to degrade the capacity of Al Shabaab in support of the African Union Mission in Somalia.
