pSomali troops backed by African Union forces have carried out a successful military campaign against al-Shabaab's strongholds in the country. But in recent days, the armed group has claimed responsibility for two explosions in Mogadishu, showing it still poses a threat to Somalia's security.pbr In an interview with France 24, Somalian President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud says that car bombings targeting restaurants and busy streets show that Al-Shabaab has been weakened. "They have no capability to attack the security forces so they attack ordinary citizens", he points out.
