Counter-terrorism efforts in Somalia are facing a major setback after Somali troops withdrew from several strategic bases in protest over unpaid salaries.
This comes as Kenyan forces have vacated one of their largest bases in Somalia, although there has been no official reason given.
Both countries, together with other international partners, have been fighting to stabilise Somalia amid the threat from al-Shabab militants.
The withdrawals have affected units of the Somali National Army in the north and south of the country.
