Shabaab report on Manda Bay attack exaggerated: US army

Sunday January 5 2020

Al-Shabaab's report on the Sunday attack at Manda Bay Airfield in Lamu County was exaggerated, the US military has said.

Manda Bay is an area where US forces provide training and counter-terrorism support to East African partners.

Following the ambush at dawn, the terror group issued a statement, saying there were "severe casualties on both Kenyan and American troops stationed there".

It added, "The Mujahideen fighters covertly entered enemy lines, successfully stormed the heavily fortified military base and have now taken effective control of a part of the base."

FALSE REPORTS

But the US Africa Command, Africom, dismissed the group's statement, saying the message was distorted to create the wrong impression.

While low IQ elderlies Woyane cadres are spreading rumors and trying to stir up hatred, violence and animosity between Muslim Ethiopian and the minority Christians community in Ethiopia, their poverty stricken tiny barren land Tigray is descending into chaos.
