French Commando Killed in Bulo Marer Raid for Denis Allex, Somalia 2013
On the night of January 11 to 12, 2013, France carried out an unsuccessful operation in Bulo Marer, Somalia, to rescue a DGSE agent held since 2009 under the alias Denis Allex. Al-Shabaab released these photographs afterward. Two French commandos were killed, including the raid commander and a 40-year-old soldier who disappeared during the withdrawal. Al-Shabaab displayed and photographed the latter's body, calling him the operation's leader; French authorities later identified him as the missing soldier, whose name has never been released. France said Allex was almost certainly killed by his captors during the raid, while al-Shabaab said he was alive in another location and, days later, declared that it had condemned him to death. His body was never returned. |
