Revelation 6:3-4 NCV When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!"4 Then another horse came out, a red one. Its rider was given power to take away peace (prosperity, rest) from the earth and to make people kill each other (butcher, slaughter, to maim violently, in streets), and he was given a big sword (assassins sword, terrorist, loud, mighty, sore afraid).
The al-Qaeda linked Islamic terrorist group al-Shabab attacked a military base and set off a roadside bomb in the Puntland section of Somalia. At least 31 people are confirmed dead in the attack.
The terrorist group fled to that portion of the country after losing the key port city of Kismayo to African Union military forces. The AU troops along with the Somali army and pro-government militia have since been making steady gains in taking territory from the extremist organization.
The Information Minister for the region told the BBC the bomb attack was outside the area’s main commercial hub of Bossaso.
Military officials say the terrorists are hiding in the Galagalo mountains where they are launching their terrorist attacks. Troops intercepted a large shipment of weapons from Yemen that were meant for the terrorists.
