Fidha254: Attacking a base is a crazy idea. Military already learnt from their lessons. It's a good thing 400+ were killed Same reason bokoharam finds joy in laying ambush on small units. |

Fidha254: “We all knew there was going to be an attack. We were on standby through the night. I heard of the impending attack at around 1am deep into the night. So we waited. But as it neared 4am, we started thinking that it was just another threat that would pass. So we had started relaxing. We were wrong,” a survivor narrated. And this is why we insist on a "Stand-to" at dawn and dusk. 1 Like |

newafricaken254: Those mounted units are very effective in 3rd world COINs and LICs. The Portuguese in the mid 60s pioneered a dragoon unit (horse mounted troops that fight dismounted) that could sweep and clear an area 5x times the size of an inf unit in a 3rd the time. Also logistics are easier though you must ensure the pasture is healthy enough. Also high protein supplements are a must. Portuguese dragoons,dragoes,Angola,early 70s. IIRC,the KWS used to have a camel unit at the same time. There's an acculturation issue ofc,though. It takes time to accustom troops to handle horses and camels. 2 Likes

Fidha254: It pains me to say this but[b] Maj Obwoge had he survived should've been executed for negligence![/b] -the pos had a frontage of over 800m wayyyy too large for a coy -there was no razor wire,trenches or even berms -I established he'd been specifically warned of a VBIED but didn't call an O-group or take any meaningful action -there was a total breakdown of tactical awareness;no sentries and most of the KDF guys were afcvkingsleep!!? -there was a section almost a k away in over watch who actually saw the VBIED approach the camp and called it in -his 2 i/c had tried to reason with him on allowing the VBIED into the camp to no avail Described as a stubborn, no nonsense general, Major Obwoge is said to have been a soldier who never believed he would be wrong. Those who hated him mostly did so because of his ‘always right’ stance. Those who admired him mostly did so because of his sharp mind.Read more at: https://www.standardmedia.co.ke/article/2001265769/brave-and-sharp-major-who-led-kdf-to-its-worst-ambush This is someone who should've remained an AFTC instructor or in personnel section BUT NEVER ANYWHERE NEAR COMBAT COMMAND. My own info has it 120 KDF KIA. Btw,the heaviest Al shabaab loss was early 2015 when almost 400 went down in a major combined air/ground op some 30 k from the border in N Sector 2. A similar number were also KIA when the last major town before Kismayu was taken in 2012-the name totally escapes me. |

Attacks in Mozambique's Gas-Rich North Leave Seven Dead in Week Gunmen killed two people in an attack on a health center in northern Mozambique, bringing to seven the number of fatalities this week in the gas-rich region that’s seen a spate of raids authorities have blamed on radical Islamists. The unidentified assailants killed a medical technician and another citizen and stole medicines and vehicles in the late Monday raid on a village in Nangade district, Cabo Deleado province, national police spokesman Inacio Dina said by phone. Two days earlier, gunmen opened fire on a government building and killed five people in Palma, where Eni SpA and Anadarko Petroleum Corp. have gas projects. Police have arrested more than 300 people since the first significant attack on Oct. 5 in the nearby city of Macimboa da Praia, which the government blamed on a “radical Islamic sect.” Police haven’t said the latest attacks are linked to that group. link https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-01-16/attacks-in-mozambique-s-gas-rich-north-leave-seven-dead-in-week |
