Somali Islamists urge Muslim fighters to join jihad

None

A Somali Islamist defense chief appealed to foreign Muslim fighters for the first time on Saturday to join his movement's "holy war" against Ethiopia.

 

"We're saying our country is open to Muslims worldwide. Let them fight in Somalia and wage jihad, and God willing, attack Addis Ababa," said defense chief Yusuf Mohamed Siad, known as Inda'ade, a hardliner who has given inflammatory remarks in the past. (Reuters)
