BELETWEIN (Garowe Online) – Ethiopian Woyanne forces deployed in central Somalia withdrew from a key region Friday, Radio Garowe reported.
A contingent of Ethiopian Woyanne troops driving 29 army trucks left the Jante Kundisho military camp in the outskirts of Beletwein, the capital of Hiran region.
The troops were reported to have headed for the Ethiopian border, where the Ethiopian Woyanne army maintains a huge base to monitor security in Somalia's central regions.
On September 13, Ethiopian Woyanne forces peacefully withdrew from Beletwein after facing consistent attacks from insurgents linked to the ousted Islamic Courts movement.
Islamist guerrillas, who are in control of virtually all districts in Hiran, also control the southern port of Kismayo and the town of Jowhar, which is located 90km from the national capital Mogadishu.

They run with their tail between their legs.The Woyannes are very powerful when they face innocent and defenseless civilians,however,when they are facing real fighters they don`t show any bravery.They run like the punch of cawards they are.

Sadly you do not know the woyannes but they always have a surprise for those who do not know them, just watch the news with in the next weeks and the once who are bragging will not have any thing to say but keep their mouth shut and lick their wounds like little winnies.
