Somali Islamist militant group Al Shabaab says it has killed 43 soldiers in an attack on a base of Ethiopian troops serving with the African Union's AMISOM force.

The base at Halgan town lies in a region of central Somalia about 300km north of the capital, Mogadishu.

Residents said they heard a huge explosion at the base and a heavy exchange of gunfire shortly before dawn.

They reported gunfire could still be heard at least an hour after the initial blast.

The group said it used a suicide car bomb and then militants exchanged fire with Ethiopian troops.

Never mess with the Ethiopian army. They are the most battle hardened military in Africa.
I bet they can fight for few days without food or water.

Reports indicate that immediately they received word of the attack, they sent in assault helicopters to cover their ground troops. This move changed everything
