SOMALIA: Ethiopian Army Truck bombed In Beletwen

Baldweyne (RBC) -Ethiopian army vehicle traveling near the Baldweyne big bridge was destroyed early this morning by roadside landmine.

Immediate casualty pertaining to the number of dead and injured soldiers is so far patchy as the area is cordoned off. On the ground witnesses confirmed that the soviet build truck the army was traveling on is destroyed beyond recognition.

This bombing comes after a week when a member of Al Shabab rammed a minibus in to a compound housing Ethiopian soldiers in which over twenty were killed.

The Al Shabab Radio in Mogadishu claimed that its fighters were behind the explosion but so far the Ethiopian army and their Shabeele Valley militias remain silent about this explosion.
