Marines advance toward Baidoa as Somalia mission shifts
Marines towed into Baidoa to seize the town airstrip and extend control over about 6,000 residents while 8,000 displaced people remain in a nearby camp. French and American forces took a roundabout route to avoid mines, planning to camp outside Hoddur then move in at sunup. Roadblocks and weapon seizures followed in Mogadishu, where two Somalis died and seven were injured after a checkpoint incident. U.N. Secretary General Boutros-Ghali calls for disarmament of all gunmen, while Washington limits disarmament to those threatening aid delivery.
