[Coeus]

Al-shabab fighters in southern regions of Somalia on Saturday issued strict orders against the young boys living under their control- a move that locals said, it would tighten further the livelihood of the youngsters in that area, residents said.

Residents also said that Al-shabab militants ordered the young boys in Lower and middle Shabelle region in southern Somalia, to enroll themselves and recruit at specific centers as to join the ongoing battle against the UN-backed Somalia government and African union peacekeepers in Mogadishu.

The latest reports from the rebel-held Afgoye town, 30-km away from Mogadishu, indicated that several Al-shabab battle vehicles with microphones were seen yesterday afternoon, patrolling street to street and ordering the young men in that town to recruit at Al-shabab militants camps.

Reports say,Al-shabab fighters threatened local residents to go their recruitment centers in Afyoye town or else will be forcibly take to the militant training in different camps in southern Somalia.


There has been growing concerns over the widespread and systematic recruitment of children in central and southern Somalia by the islamist miliotants of Al-shabab for the past few months,reports said.
