The local forces backed by international partners killed the militants who had burned down a commuter bus when escaping from the battlefield, the Commander for the Infantry Mohamed Tahlil Bihi told the state-run Radio Mogadishu on Monday.
"Our forces are making progress on the war against terrorists on several fronts," said Bihi, Xinhua reported.
The fighting came a day after the militant group carried out a deadly attack on Sunday in Somalia's capital Mogadishu.
