The Al-Qaeda-affiliated extremist group Al Shabaab withdrew from the city on 02 October after AMISOM troops, Somali National Army (SNA) forces and the pro-government Ras Kimboni Brigade entered and captured Kismayo without a fight. During their security sweep, AMISOM engineers found one device planted in the perimeter wall next to the entrance, which was destroyed by a controlled explosion. AU-UN IST PHOTO / STUART PRICE.
