Somalia's army took down a dangerous terrorist leader during a midnight raid near Bariire town. Elite soldiers called Danab Commandos stormed into Yuumbis village and killed eight Al-Shabaab fighters. The biggest target was Abdi Jabbaar, known as Bilal, who made deadly bombs for the terror group. Army officials said he had blood on his hands from years of attacks against innocent people. The mission happened on Somalia's Independence Day, making the victory extra special.
Bilal had worked for Al-Shabaab since 2007 and became their top bomb maker. He destroyed important bridges that people needed for trade and getting help. The terrorist specialized in making explosive devices that killed many civilians across southern Somalia. Defense ministers called his death a major win against the extremist network. His skills made him one of their most wanted targets.
The army has been fighting Al-Shabaab terrorists for many years across the country. These militants have been causing trouble since 2006 and joined forces with al-Qaeda later. They lost control of big cities like Mogadishu but still attack from rural areas. The group targets government workers, soldiers, and regular citizens with suicide bombs. Somalia's military promises to hunt down every remaining terrorist until the country becomes safe again.
