Speaking to the reporters in Mogadishu, Al Shabab spokesman Sheikh Ali Mohamud Rage thanked to the mujahideen that carried out and threatened more attacks in Uganda.

The AU is now preparing to send reinforcement troops from Uganda and other countries to Somalia to help the weak government restore peace and stability in the country.

The Somali insurgent group al-Shabab last week condemned plans by six East African countries to send reinforcements to shore up the AU peacekeeping mission known as AMISOM.

Uganda is the largest contributor to the 5,000-member AMISOM force, and is preparing to increase its troop commitment.
