War-ready Senegalese soldiers enter Gambia again and open fire

Bellicose Senegalese soldiers crossed into The Gambia and opened fire, multiple people familiar with the issue have said.

The soldiers crossed into the country through Omorto, Kombo East on Wednesday.

One person sharing pictures of Gambians clashing with the soldiers with The Fatu Network said the soldiers pursued a truck conveying timber.

Gambian army spokesman Major Lamin Sanyang told The Fatu Network they received reports and their units and operatives were gathering relevant information.
