Al-Shabaab Gets Yemeni Al-Qaeda and Boko-Haram Help
June 14 | Posted by David Goldman | Intelligence News, Military Intelligence
Al-Shabaab has bolstered its capacity by bringing in Boko-Haram
bomb making experts and commando trainers to up its degraded capability
in both guerrilla and bombing operations.
Al-Shabaab has also enlisted the help of Yemeni-Al-Qaeda operatives to provide training on IED’s and suicide missions.
Intelligence reports confirm that the militants are getting too much ground to regroup and plan counter measures in South, Middle, and Eastern Somalia.
Strategic Intelligence warns that there will be increased attacks on military personnel operating in Somalia as newly recruited and daring Al-Shabaab recruits and militancy graduates engage in these special operations.
Al-Shabaab will resurge in the coming weeks and months in a spirited attempt to preempt the peace efforts by AMISOM.
Kenya Defense Forces (KDF), will face a series of hit and runs-guerrilla attacks by units of Al-Shabaab guerillas. These guerrillas will use sniper fire, and bombings to inflict causality on the troops.
Al-Shabaab got a boost when at least 20 experts from different countries including Yemeni and Nigeria came to offer support.
Training and recruiting new troops is primary at this stage when the militant group is nearly defeated. They want more troops to deploy.
There has been a decline in their bombings in Mogadishu and other areas. This is due to lack of capacity in these departments and they are outsourcing.
Boko Haram are very good in bombings. They have wreaked havoc in Nigeria in the recent past and their success rate is very credible.
Yemeni Al-Qaeda is very successful in commando attacks, suicide bombings, and hit and runs. They will share this expertise with Al-Shabaab.
The training and deployment is a rapid program to facilitate faster procurement of desired results in both Somalia and Kenya.
Kenya and Somalia will be targets with Somalia being a good target for suicide bombers and guerrillas and Kenya a target of Suicide bombers and a major terrorist attack.
