Kenya Defense Forces have deployed strategically across South Somalia to curb the threat of Islamists.
Mechanized brigades are now strategically deployed. The air Calvary battalion is on standby besides the Kenya airforce.
Defense Intelligence shows Kenya is worried about the withdrawal of some AMISOM troops from areas that can give the Harakat Al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen Movement, al-Qaeda’s branch in Somalia tactical advantage.
“If the Shebaab movement gains any kind of tactical advantage, those AMISOM troops and Somali army will be sitting ducks. The troops must be capable and reliable in their operations against the terror group.”
Kenya Army and the Somali Army are moving deeper into Gedo objectively. The objective is to preempt the threats posed by the terror group.
Al Shabaab has conducted probing attacks in Kismayo city and successfully breached defenses of the Somali National Army.
Kenya army (Kenya Defense Forces) killed more than 20 militants in different operations during the start of the month of Ramadhan effectively disrupting subsequent major attacks in Kenya.
Just because obama’s coming is around the corner! Kenya nkt!
