(S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Following are the perceived highlights
from each source.
- (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Source (Green Data):
-- The target personality Warlord Mohamed Farrah Aidid is
currently located as marked on the attached map. The political
leader is wearing red and is not traveling alone. There are men
traveling on land with him and he may be moving in a southern
direction. He is short of some supplies. This man is furious
about certain issues, is in danger, and although he is a fighter,
is now feeling tired. He is uncomfortable with staying in any
one location for very long and is therefore, on the move.
- (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Source (Black Data):
-- The target is currently associated with a compound
(see diagram, page 3a). This compound occurs on a street
intersection in the outskirts of an established city (BELET WEYNE
was the first perception) but it is not Mogadishu (see map
plots).
-- The compound consists of:
--- A long, narrow, two to three story building. It
has a distinctive blue or green metal "attachment" which extends
from the structure front and angles up; a corner which appears to
have deteriorated in same fashion; the surface of the side of the
building appears woven or fabric-like (diagram, page 3b); with an
angular design or feature along one side. The concept of
"storage" is associated with this building. In addition, the
concept of "textile mill" was also perceived.
--- A walled or barricaded-in open area. This area
contains a series of low, upright cylindrically shaped objects
which are associated with the concept of "containment"; a group

of large "coils" laying on their sides (diagram 2, page 3c); an
area containing a number of similar objects scattered?about
(diagram 2, page 3g); and an area which contains an additional
upright flattened cylinder (this area "looks" out of place with
the other components .within the compound).
--- A gate-like entrance with associated dark brown or
green wooden features (diagram, page 3d). This "gate" leads to
an area used for sitting or waiting. There is a stone or cement
bench along. one side of this "waiting" area.
--- A squared-off, hard sided trench or gutter-like
feature running in front of the "gate" feature (diagram 1,
page 3 f) .
-- Continuing out the "back" of the compound leads to a
large area which is open and flat. A large "wadi" or "arroyo"
runs close to the compound in this large, open area.
-- There is a playground located close to this?compound.
One of the streets which runs along side of the compound is named
"WADI _ ". Other phonetics associated with this compound are:
KHASRA and ILIM or ILEEM. The Arabic word Qj, is on the side of
the building. ~~_
-- Associated with and/or located near the compound were
the following features and/or objects: (Diagram 1, page 3e),
consists of another upright, flattened cylinder with a
"spreading" feature extending upwards from the center. Diagram
2, page 3e, consists of a "large, bumpy metal plate" which covers
a subsurface "access" area. This plate is currently "frozen" in
place but once swung up and down. There are a number of curved
pipes and round handled objects i.e. valves, located in one
corner of the sub-surface "access" area. Diagrams 2 and 3,
page 3f, depicts an unidentified cylindrically shaped object
attached by two "arms" to a large, solid object.. Diagram 1,
page 3c, depicts an unidentified object which is associated with
moving smaller, uniformly shaped objects from a horizontal
movement to one that angles up. Diagram 1, page 3g, depicts a
curved, metal object with a "tube" extending out from the convex
side.
-- Additional concepts associated with the target are:
earth moving equipment; dogs barking; stone or cement blocks; an
object shaped like a "boat's bow hull".spinning on its axis;
three or four large, oversized books lying open, one on top of
another (these books have distinctive gold colored floral designs
highlighting the covers); and a building with four levels.
