Event
On 26th January 2016 at 1600hrs East African Time (EAT), 6 precision airstrikes conducted by 3 Kenya Army F-5 Tiger bombers completely decommissioned a terrorist forward base at Hosingow area in Juba region of Somalia.
Witnesses and Somali journalists reported the airstrike confirming devastation and complete decimation of the base but did not provide estimates of lost jihadists (enemy combatant deaths).
Military intelligence reports show that there was intelligence that an estimated 160 Al-Shabaab terrorists-fighters had made camp outside Hosingow with the intent of attacking Kenya Defense Forces forward operations base (KDF-FOB) in Juba region of Somalia.
Analysis
The military response to the threat on troops serving under AMISOM is part of a larger strategy that seeks to maximize neutralizing of terrorist camps and making direct strikes against targets verified as the infrastructure for state-sponsored training and support complexes of the Al-Shabaab terror group in Somalia.
Kenya’s strategy is currently focusing on swift and sure operations to ensure intense ‘precision attrition and counter-force‘ ground and air operations against positions and camps belonging to the Al-Qaeda branch in Somalia, Harakat Al-Shabaab Al-Mujahideen movement (HSM) in Gedo region of Somalia.
The initial OSINT assessments confirm the airstrikes were precise and did inflict a severe blow on the jihadists. Actual battle damage assessment will confirm if any of the estimated 160 fighters survived.

Someone like Hassan Mohammed should be arrested immediately if we have a government in place, they are the kind of people who betray us, case in point, Westgate, garissa university, mpeketoni etc should not be spared.

I am now looking forward to an al shabaab free era
Bravo oparation fangia alshabaab
If you rattle a snake be prepared to be biten
Those who are saying Kenya to surrender are not serious…… Do u think alshaabab will stop attacking?
Let our millitary use one nuclear weapon to save us,and clear somalia to dust…. we need a new generation in somalia…….
al-shabaab walikua wanatuvamia ata kabla ya kdf kwenda somalia,na gava ikaanza (operation linda nchi) after kuona hawa al-shabaab wamekuja sana, xo kdf iko somalia bcoz ov kenya n kenyans na gava ya somalia, NOTE THAT ENEMY OV UR FRED IZ UR ENEMY.LET KDF DO THEIR JOB.

what about civillians…
Bro. Huko hakuna civilians. Coz kukiwa Moto wana mingle nao. So they have to clear everything!
Hao wanaitwa collateral damage..haha
every war has rules of engagement…remember why the americans and brits did not win regardless of their sophisticated millitaryware?
Fry them with PIG’S OIL!!!
Ruthless crash. na bado
i wonder why commentors are following brainwashing bulshit of kenyan securities by flying above the air and claiming they killed such number of terrorhist while they killed dozens of innocent pple which is inhuman.why are they directing themselves to sand dues while seeing the real image.Nonses stories.
So innocent people stay in alshabaab’s hideouts?
its revenge..same people..infact el adde shud hv bn completely wiped out
Kuna mtu innocent somalia ?
If they are not terrorist they are sympythisers
Abdikarim Ali! That’s whom u call yourself u can afford to question OUR security organs while residing in OUR COUNTRY! Wacha kuuma matiti ya mamako! My friend.
guys am not against ma country bt in revenge they should hve face the terrorist in adirect manner and finish them off bt not innocents.
as far as i know kdf attacked a shabaab camp…..anybody there waz a terrorist… which innocent are u talking about…..wat about hundreds innocent killed in kenya?
Strike even harder becos they stand for no religion!
dawa ya moto ni moto kubwa.
Bravo to our ace combat pilots. decommission them to the last drop
