Military movements begin against Al-Shabaab movement west of Hiran province

 Military movements have begun by militias affiliated with the clans residing in the western regions of Hiran region in Hirshabelle state to participate in operations against Al-Shabaab.

Many militias have been gathered in the cities of Beledweyne and Juel to fight alongside the Somali army, which is expected to begin military operations against Al-Shabaab in the western regions of Hiran region. It should be noted that Somali clans play a pivotal role in the battles waged by Somali government forces against Al-Shabaab in the country's various regions.

Last year, tribal militias contributed to liberating the eastern regions of Hiran province from the Al-Shabaab movement, as well as large areas in Middle Shabelle region, and they play the same role in the military operations currently taking place in Galmudug state.
