(Press TV) – Heavy clashes between Ethiopian Woyanne forces and insurgents in central Somalia have left at least 14 soldiers dead and many others wounded.
The soldiers were killed late on Thursday as anti-Ethiopian anti-Woyanne insurgents raided newly positioned Ethiopians Woyannes between Cali Kamiin and Albraka in Hodon District, the Press TV correspondent in Somalia reported.
The fierce battle lasted for 3 hours; however, the insurgents finally fled the area.
Elsewhere in Somalia, a large number of government soldiers, armed with high-powered rifles, opened fire on civilians at Mogadishu’s Bakara Market on Friday morning.
There were no immediate reports on the number of casualties.
