The town of Marka in southern somalia is known as a rebel stronghold that was solidly under the control of al-Shabab. But two weeks ago, the group fled, abandoning the town almost without a fight. Still, the risk of ambush remains high. The African Union, which has a heavy troop presence in the area, says al-Shabab might have pulled back but they have not gone away. Al Jazeera's Peter Greste reports from Marka.
