    Military officials told HOL that the clash took place in the mountain named Wareertire after the group members gathered in the area to attack local clan militia forces. The fighting lasted for almost two hours, officials added.

    The confrontation comes a day after Somali army forces, aided by international partners, eliminated several al-Shabab militants in an airstrike near the Buulaburte district of the Hiiran region. The drones targeted group members gathered in the Jicibow area.
