House to house searches continue next day in Kismayo,
Lower Jubba region. People arrested in
these operations have reached almost 600 people, as reported by BBC Somali
Service reporter in Mogadishu[1].
The same reporter in the same program referenced above
has noted a high delegation from the federal
government coming to Kismaayo to asses the
situation in the town after Shebab was removed from the town. They have visited various places, including
the port.
BBC Somali service in the same program referenced above
has also reported people evicted from their homes and businesses because they
were located in public premises. They settled
these public premises after they have left their homes due to wars raging in
relevant areas. The government should have given them an alternative before
evicting them.
An attempt to throw missiles at the main airport in Mogadishu
has been prevented, as reported by Somali police[2].
Some of the people apprehended were
well-known Shebab members, as claimed by a regional police commander. No evidence
to prove this point has been supplied.
