Spokesman Ali Dhere is one of the senior leaders of the Al-Shabab terrorist group, which his face often appears in the group’s media. They later lied.
It is not the first time that the US government has placed a bounty on the top leaders of Al-Shabab, and this action coincides with the fact that most of the regions of the country are fighting and bombing against the Al-Shabab group, placed in many areas and districts that were previously dominated by the terrorist group.
According to The U.S. Department of State’s Rewards for Justice program, which is administered by the Diplomatic Security Service, is offering a reward of up to $5 million for information leading to the identification or location of Al-Shabab key leader Ali Mohamed Rage.
