JIJIGA, Ethiopia, Sept. 29 — Somali forces fully control this strategically important town and a vital mountain pass nearby that cuts through the Kara Marda range into the central highlands of Ethiopia.
Despite vigorous claims by Addis Ababa that the strategic gateway is still in Ethiopian hands, and that a critical battle is raging here, the only signs of an Ethiopian presence are the millions of dollars worth of American‐supplied tanks, military vehicles and ammunition the Ethiopians left behind in an apparently panicky retreat into the mountains.
For the Somalis, the capture of Jijiga is the most significant prize in the nine weeks of war in the Ogaden, the Somalipopulated region of eastern Ethiopia claimed by Mogadishu.
