Mujahideen fighters still continue to fight the Ethiopian occupying troops in the Somalia capital Mogadishu on Sunday. It has been going on for the fourth day today.
The situation around the battle zones such as Towfiq Ali-Kamin and former soccer stadium Mogadishu in south of the capital remain calm today .
The puppet ethiopian troops restarted shelling early this morning, although failed in their attempts to incur any damage on the mujahideen groups. People continue to flee the capital escaping the artillery shells.
Buses could be seen carrying families with their belongings and leaving the capital towards to southern regions.
The number of civilians killed in the last three-day clashes reached 150 and 300 more were wounded, while scores of occupying troops have been killed in the fighting from both warring sides.
Meanwhile, a human rights body accused the US of detaining fleeing Somalis in a pact with neighbouring countries.
Human Rights Watch (HRW) said dozens of people fleeing the Somali conflict had been stopped at the Kenyan border, handed to the US for interrogation, repatriated to Somalia and then passed on to Ethiopia, where they had "effectively disappeared".
