According to a police officer, gunfire was heard as a car carrying explosives struck a hotel gate in the middle of Kassamio, a coastal city, on Sunday.
The Somali government national television said on Twitter that the security forces deal with a “terrorist incident” at the hotel, which Al -Shabab, which was linked to al -Qaeda, was responsible for.
According to an official, the meeting was taking place at the Tawakkol Hotel, which is close to the port of Kisameo and is guarded by the Kenyan Air Defense Forces, to discuss an attack that was now being made on a youth group.
In order to attack the luxurious “Tawakkol” beachfront hotel in the Somalian coastal town of Kassamio, where a group of armed youth group militants stormed and infiltrated the hotel’s defended grounds, the youth group exploded a car bomb.
According to eyewitnesses, the sounds of gunshots can still be heard to this moment’s borders.
In the city of Kassamio, Juba, south of Somalia, the Youth Group carried out a suicide strike followed by an immersion attack on the government-run “Tawakkil” hotel, which is frequented by Joballand administration officials.
At least 21 people were killed in a hotel in Mogadishu targeted by the youth group, which confirmed its culpability for the attack, while the security forces claimed to have rescued scores. This attack was the youth group’s largest in Mogadishu since the election of the new president.
The hotel was a preferred location for government leaders to gather, and the militants captured it there.
Reporters were informed at the time by Police Commissioner Abdi Hassan Mohamed Hajjar that 106 individuals, including women and children, were saved by the security forces during the siege that ended at midnight.
The director of the “Heral” Research Center in Mogadishu Samira Qaid considered that “the bold attack” constitutes a message to the new government and its foreign allies, and confirmed: “The complex attack is aimed at showing that the youth are still strongly present.
The strike was strongly denounced by Somalia’s friends, including the United States, Britain, Turkey, and the United Nations.
