“We have seen a hundred of Al-Shabab fighters who arrived here during the past few days,” a resident who requested anonymity told Puntland Mirror.
The resident added: “the fighters are armed with handguns, but they do not have vehicles.”
Ceerigaabo and its surroundings are now controlled by Somaliland administration.
