Al-Shabab killed 200 Kenyan troops last month: Somali president

‘Somalia’s President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud says as many as 200 Kenyan soldiers had been killed when the Takfiri al-Shabab militants attacked an African Union base in the country last month.

President Mohamud said during an interview with a Somali TV channel that nearly 200 Kenyan troops lost their lives when al-Shabab militants attacked the base in the town of El Adde in the southwestern Gedo region in mid January.

“When about 200 soldiers who came to help your country are killed in one morning, it is not something trivial,” the Somali president said, adding, “We have been winning for years and months but that El Adde battle, we were defeated. Yes, in war, sometimes something that you do not like happens to you.”‘
