Somali special forces gain ground against al-Shabab extremists – BBC News
The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

Al Shabab is an CIA/Mossad/MI6 Operation to destabilize Somalia and the whole Region. The Somali Government should make pressure on the US and Israeli Government to stop these kind of False Flag Operations. US General Wesley Clark wrote in his Book, that after 11/9 the Pentagon received a list of 10 Countries including Somalia, from the United States Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz, that these Countries had to be attacked, amongst other things, with these kind of false flag attacks. And since that time they are doing this. From their Experience in creating Al Kaeda, they went on and created al lot of these Organisacions like ISIS, Dash, Boko Haram, Al Shabab and so on. Same Script with new Name. All Governments should make Pressure on The CIA/Mossad/MI6 to stop the Terror. And Blaming Islam and Muslims for the CIA/Mossad/MI6 Terror is also an Evil act. The World should apologize to all the Muslims and Non Muslims who suffered because of the False Flag Terror. May God Almighty(Allah in arabic) protect us from this kind of Evil

Al shabab have done more good for the Somali community then the government have done the last 30 years….. The city they control have food and safety people are moving there willingly. BBC it’s not an attack on Islam it’s an attack on people with integrity and is practising Muslims. The American know if al shabab wins this war they will not be able to bribe them money is not what they seek. They seek a spiritual clarity inspired by our prophet Muhammad swc..
