Al-Shaabab attacks on Ethiopian millitary base leave 13 dead.
Al-Shabab forces have taken over an Ethiopian military base in an attack that killed eight Ethiopians and five insurgents in Somalia.
Ethiopian soldiers surrendered their positions when al-Shabab attacked their Digfeer military building May 31, Press TV correspondent reports.

Other Ethiopian bases have retaliated by targeting Hodon and Howlwadag civilian districts, showering them with artillery fire.

People in Mogadishu believe the heavy artillery and mortar attacks to be the result of Ethiopian defeat.

At least 87 mortar rounds have been fired into civilian areas since the attack on the Ethiopian base and violence is now escalating.

    Everytime there’s an attack on the Woyane military, the civilians pay for it as victims of retaliation. If the U.S. is really concerned about democracy and human rights, then how come they’re looking the other way, while innocent Somalis are being attacked by the Woyane gangsters?
