    He added that the troops would liberate the districts of Jilib and Bu'alle from al-Shabab, which are now the main Shabaab bases in Somalia.

    In recent months, the army and local clan militias have retaken chunks of territory in Galmudug and Hirshabelle states in an operation backed by US air strikes and an African Union force.
