Colonel Manos among the Recent Woyane Militia Deaths
March 15, 2009 One of the Ogaden Online news reporters stationed in Doolo province has confirmed that the head of the Woyane militias stationed in Wardheer was killed in the battle of Afyaraado. Afyaraado is about six kilometers from Wardheer. The dead Woyane militia head was a man named Manos (Spelling may not be correct). His military rank was said to be that of a colonel. Also killed in the same battle was the head of the conscripted Somali militias, a man nicknamed ‘Wadna Qabad.'
In related news, the so-called local militias numbering 430 that were recently deployed in Dhanaan has yet again been redeployed to Godey. Eyewitnesses indicated that the reason for the said redeployment was due to excessive fear by the regime in Addis Ababa that this militia was either going to be overrun completely by the Ogaden National Liberation Army (ONLA), or that many members were going to lay down their arms and ask for a save passage from the ONLA battalions that were pushing closer to the city.
Reports reaching the service desk indicate that specially trained ONLA commandos have successfully penetrated a major militia garrison that bordered the Jees Guuleed homes in the city of Dhagax Buur. A fierce firefight ensued and lasted a couple of hours. It was reported that the ONLA commandos confused the Woyane militias by attacking them from four different directions from within the garrison.
This has caused the Woyane militias to fire indiscriminately in all directions. Such indiscriminate firing is said to have allowed all the ONLA commandos to easily leave the garrison unharmed. Eyewitnesses reported that long after the ONLA commandos left the militia garrison, the Woyane militias were still fighting each other. It resulted the death of about 25 militias. It is suspected that the casualty is a lot more, but there are no eyewitness confirmations yet.
Due to the increasing success of the ONLA, it is reported that both the so-called head of the local administration and that of the ‘security affairs' were both summoned to go to Wardheer. Wardheer is the city that came under the most intense ONLA attacks. It is also the city that is most feared to fall for the ONLA at any moment.
Reliable sources within the so-called local administration have intimated to one of our reporters that the two individuals are wary of setting foot in Wardheer, yet they are unsure if they could refuse the order to go there for fear of serious repercussions.
