In the news,Somalia's Islamist group al-Shabab has named Ahmad Umar as successor to former leader Ahmed Abdi Godane, who was killed in a US air strike.
The group announced the move in an online statement, vowing to take revenge for Godane's death.
Little is known about Ahmad Umar, who is also known as Abu Ubaidah.
Abu Mohammed, one of al-Shabab's commanders, said the decision to appoint him was unanimous.
The announcement of the new leader came just minutes after al-Shabab themselves confirmed the death of Godane.
Earlier on Saturday, Somali National Security Minister Kalif Ahmed Ereg told reporters: "Security agencies have obtained information indicating that al-Shabab is now planning to carry out desperate attacks against medical facilities, education centres and other government facilities."
Mr Ereg "congratulated the Somali people" on Godane's death, adding: "The security forces are ready to counter their attacks and we call on people to help the security forces in standing against violent acts."
