Al-Shabaab Captures Af-Urur Town in Somalia’s Puntland Region

[AussieHustler]

Al-Qaeda-linked militants captured a town in Somalia’s semi-autonomous region of Puntland, after taking over a military base.

Al-Shabaab fighters seized Af-Urur on Saturday after soldiers moved from the base due to a military tactic, Farah Ali, a military officer said by phone.

Puntland is situated on the Gulf of Aden, near the entrance to the Red Sea and the Suez Canal, one of the world’s busiest shipping channels. Like the rest of Somalia, the semi-autonomous region is battling militants from the al-Shabaab group, an al-Qaeda affiliate.

They didn’t capture it, they simply walked in because PL forces withdrew same thing happened last year and AS withdrew a short time later and PL forces moved in.

This is a non story, and definitely not breaking news.

Same thing from last year.

Many people assume Af Urur is part of Bari region of Puntland but it is actually part of Sanaag region specially Laasqoray district.

This proves the failure of Pland administration. They cant defeat 50 youngsters with ak47

@Farm

My mistake, disregard it, but the problems of unpaid soldiers still languishes and why will they abandon a strategic place which is only a distance of 60 miles to Bosaaso is beyond me?

Ceelayo is more near Bari region yet it is not considered as part of Bari.

Keep dreaming.

Puntland is the graveyard of all the trash Somalia has to offer.

They can only do hit and runs and "capture" towns when the police are taking a break.

We can dig your grave too if you are interested.

48 soldiers dead is that from both sides combined?
