At least 27 people, including
nine Ethiopian soldiers and seven
insurgents, have been killed in
fierce fighting in the Somali's
capital of Mogadishu early Saturday.
"Ethiopian soldiers walking in
numbers have spread into our
neighborhood of Towfiq this morning,
and that has sparked deadly clashes
between them and the insurgents,"
resident Muna Abdi Ibrahim said from
Mogadishu.
He said it appeared that the
insurgents had ambushed the
soldiers, who entered the area on
foot.
Ethiopia's army invaded Somalia in
December 2006 and deposed the
government. Ethiopian troops have
remained to support interim
government as it battles insurgents.
Abdi Rahim Isa Adow, a
representative for the insurgents ,
confirmed that seven fighters had
been killed but said that "a large
number of Ethiopian soldiers" had
also been killed.
Among the dead were 11 civilians,
five of whom were killed at a tea
bar in the northern part of the city
by an artillery strike.
