Mogadishu (Sunatimes) Al-Shabaab militias in Sinka Der area on the outskirt of the capital, Mogadishu, on Saturday night clashed themselves over the control of a checkpoint in the area.

Locals in the area confirmed to Bar-kulan that a group of hooded militia men attacked and briefly seized the group’s base in the area.

It is not yet known whether there were any casualties on both sides. The incident come a day after similar incident took place in Daynile district of Mogadishu, where tow Al-Shabaab groups clashed.

Infighting, drought and financial crisis have in the last few months weakened the militia’s military capability in the country, forcing it to pull out of all positions in the capital.
