Witnesses say at least 15 people have been killed in two days of ongoing
clashes between rival Islamist groups in central Somalia. Clashes in the
town of Wabho mainly involved fighters from the al-Shabab group and its
rival the, Ahlu Sunna Wajama. Residents say many civilians have been
injured since the violence erupted Saturday. Reports say the
pro-government Ahlu Sunna Wajama reportedly attacked the Shabab-held
village. The two sides have fought repeatedly for control over the
region.
