:
- The target
is currently associated with
a location which
is WSW of the city of Mogadishu.
The following attributes are
associated with this
location:
— A flat,
dusty area bordered by
a curved wall along one
edge and
a straight wall along another edge
(see diagram
1,
page
3a)
These two walls intersect.
There
is an object
reminiscent of
a tower which sits within the level area.
— The
"tower" object
(see diagram 2a,
page
3b)
has
a
large,
cylindrically shaped tank-like feature on top.
There
is
a
wooden plank platform which sits
a short distance below the tank.
* %
— This location
is associated with water.
There
is also
a strong odor which smells
like dried fish.
— There
is
a structure which occurs nearby and on the
same side of the street/road of the wall-tower feature mentioned
above.
This structure give strong impressions
of having had two
functions:
"a hanger converted into a warehouse"
or
"a warehouse
which has been converted into
a hanger".
— A twin engine aircraft
is stored within this structure
(see diagram
2b,
page
3b).
It has been "civilized";
that
is,
a
military aircraft converted into
a civilian aircraft.
It has
what seems to be overly large engines about mid-wing.
The wings
appear to go through the middle of the engines.
- The mode
of travel by which the target
is moving
is via an
open bed truck which
is used to transport
large,
flat pieces
of
rock or stone
(see diagram
3,
page
3c).
This truck has the
following associated with
it:
— There
is
a hidden compartment
in the bed.
It
is
camouflaged by the large flat rocks which the truck routinely
transports
.
This compartment
is being used ^to hide
combat
related objects:
hard,
metal tubes and large amounts of
similarly shaped objects reminiscent of large ammo or
projectiles
— This truck has
a second distinctive feature:
a green
metal/ wood tool
or storage box which sits at the front of the
cargo bed section.
— This truck
is bringing these large,
flat pieces of
rock or stone
into the city of Mogadishu.

rock
is close to the mountainous area.
The rock
is taken from
the side
of the foothills rather than
"up"
from the ground.
— One can see this area
(reminiscent of
a quarry)
with
binoculars from Mogadishu.
— There
is
a
"stop" between the location where the rock
is taken from the earth and Mogadishu where weapons/ammo are
placed
in the compartment.
— The wall-tower location,
the structure containing the
aircraft and the weapon/ammo
"loading" point are all within the
same vicinity of each other.
- The target
is protected.
. .more like "warned"
or alerted to
patrols
in his general vicinity by
a flock of goats.
The warning
signal
is the presence
of
a single black goat within
a group or
flock of white goats.
- Additionally,
seemingly unrelated,
objects as depicted on
(diagram
4,
page
3d).
No relationship with the aforementioned
could be ascertained.
