The
spokesman for Somalia's militant al-Shabab group in Kismayo says
members of the Ethiopia-based rebel group, Ogaden National Liberation
Front, are fighting alongside one of the factions of al-Shabab's former
Islamist ally, Hizbul Islam, in the south of the country. The
accusation runs counter to Ethiopia's claim that the ONLF has ties to
al-Shabab.
Madobe is the newly-appointed leader of the Ras Kamboni Brigade, an Islamist group that also has strong ties to a regionally dominant Somali sub-clan called the Ogaden. Yacqub says the fighting began after Ahmed Madobe led an attack on al-Shabab bases in the village of Hagar. The al-Shabab spokesman says Madobe's troops included ONLF fighters.
