Umutwe w’iterabwoba wa Al-Shabaab wo muri Somalia mu cyumweru gishize wavuze ko ari wo warashe kajugujugu y’Igisirikare cy’u Burundi yo mu bwoko bwa Bell 412 hafi y’ibirindiro bya yo cyayo muri Middle Shabelle.

Ubutumwa bwa Afurika Yunze Ubumwe muri Somalia, ubu buzwi ku izina rya AUSSOM, bwatangaje ko kajugujugu yari irimo kuvana ingabo zishinzwe kubungabunga amahoro z’Abarundi izivana mu mudugudu wa Hawadley wibasiwe n’umwuzure ubwo yahuraga n’ikibazo cya tekiniki, biba ngombwa ko igwa hafi y’ubutaka bugenzurwa na Al-Shabaab.
Nk’uko AUSSOM ibivuga, kugwa byihutirwa byatewe n’ikibazo cya tekiniki aho guhanurwa n’umwanzi. N’ubwo kajugujugu yatawe aho hantu kubera icyo kibazo, ngo abakozi bose bari mu ndege barimo umuderevu n’ingabo, bashoboye kuhava nta kibazo. Nyuma baje gukira no kwimurirwa mu kigo cya gisirikare cyari hafi aho.
Icyakora, abarwanyi ba Al-Shabaab bafashe ibisigazwa bya kajugujugu nyuma yo kugwa, nyuma bakwiza amashusho ya yo bavuga ko bayirashe. Ibi bitandukanye cyane n’amagambo yatangajwe na AUSSOM, ishimangira ko nta masasu y’abanzi yabigizemo uruhare nk’uko iyi nkuru dukesha military.africa ivuga.
Kareem Adebayo, Intumwa Idasanzwe y’agateganyo ya Perezida wa Komisiyo ya AU muri Somalia, yashimye ingabo z’Abarundi ku buryo bihuse kandi bakitwara kinyamwuga muri iki kibazo. Yashimangiye kandi Umuryango wa Afurika Yunze Ubumwe ukomeje kwiyemeza gushyigikira Somalia, igihugu gihanganye n’umwuzure ukabije ndetse n’umutekano mucye ukomeje guhungabanywa n’imitwe nka Al-Shabaab.
Ibi byabaye ntabwo ari ibintu byihariye mu gihugu cya Somalia. Umwaka ushize, abarwanyi ba Al-Shabaab bafashe kajugujugu y’Umuryango w’Abibumbye yari itwaye abagabo babiri bo muri Somaliya n’abanyamahanga benshi. Iyo ndege yari yahagurutse mu mujyi wa Beledweyne rwagati muri Somalia ariko ihura n’ikibazo nyuma gato, bituma igwa byihutirwa hafi y’umudugudu wa Hindhere, hafi y’akarere ka Galguduud.
Aho hantu yaguye icyo gihe na ho hari mu gice kigenzurwa na Al-Shabaab, kandi uyu mutwe wahise ufata kajugujugu. Umuvugizi w’Umuryango w’Abibumbye, Stéphane Dujarric, yemeje ibyabaye mu kiganiro yatangiye i New York, agira ati: “Nshobora kwemeza ko habaye ikibazo kijyanye na kajugujugu ikoreshwa n’Umuryango w’Abibumbye cyabereye uyu munsi i Galmudug muri Somalia.”
Gukomeza kwibasira cyangwa gufata indege zahanuwe na Al-Shabaab bigaragaza akaga gakomeje kugaragara mu bikorwa byo kubungabunga amahoro n’ibikorwa by’ubutabazi mu kirere cya Somalia.

Ku bijyanye na kajugujugu y’u Burundi, kwimura mu mutekano abakozi bose byagenze neza, ariko gutakaza indege ubwayo ku barwanyi ba Al-Shabaab byerekana gusubira inyuma. Ubushobozi bw’uyu mutwe bwo gufata no kwamamaza ibisigazwa ntibikora gusa nka poropagande y’intsinzi gusa, ahubwo binibutsa imbogamizi mu kubungabunga umutekano mu bihe bitoroshye.
