A joint and coordinated security operation in the Digdiga general area has led to the dismantling of a suspected Al-Shabaab camp at Qanjara Durow.
During the operation, security personnel established a presence near Gel Qad Junction before advancing towards Qanjara Durow, where they encountered suspected militants and engaged in a fierce exchange of fire.
They overpowered the Al-Shabaab militants and secured the area.
The team further dismantled the camp after neutralising more militants who were present. Upon searching the camp, the team recovered assorted materials linked to militant activities, including communication equipment, improvised explosive device (IED)-related materials, uniforms, ammunition, food supplies, and other logistical items.
The recovered materials have been secured for further examination as investigations continue.
The National Police Service remains committed to protecting communities and sustaining operations aimed at degrading criminal and extremist activities.
