Somali government soldiers, backed by African Union peacekeepers, have clashed with al-Shabaab fighters on the outskirts of Kolbiyo, a town in lower Jubba province near the Kenya-Somalia border.

About 80 government soldiers on pick-up trucks attacked the group’s bases 10km from the town on Saturday, an al-Shabaab spokesman told Al Jazeera.

The early-morning attack lasted for more than an hour, he said.

The Kenyan military said dozens of fighters from the anti-government group was killed in the ensuing clashes.

“Somali National Army kill over 30 al-Shabaab in Kolbio, close to Kenya border,” spokesman Emmanuel Chirchir said on his Twitter account.
