Somali has become the preferred destination for foreign fighters looking to join Islamic militant Alshabab. Alshabab Websites were increasingly encouraging extremists to go to Somali, where they can join Alshabab who are operating lawless Somalia.

Many of the fighters are making their way to Mogadishu the Somalia´s capital where Alshabab is battling the UN and western recognized Somali government. According to the sources in Mogadishu say the fighters are numbered some 500 to 600 men from Arab world, Asia, Europe and North America States.
