#SOMALIA: 𝐑𝐚𝐬 𝐊𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐧𝐢 𝟐.𝟎 𝐢𝐧 𝐆𝐚𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐚𝐜𝐲𝐨? Villa Somalia’s latest adventure ends the only way it knows… Puntland forces stormed the PSF HQ on the outskirts of Gaalkacyo this morning after hours of heavy fighting. The base is gone. PSF Commander of Ops and Mohamed Diyaano are reportedly in custody. While al-Shabaab still holds territory & even recently captured the strategic town of #Teedaan in #Hiiraan. Do you know how many times Teedaan has changed hands since 2022? Three times! This is why the international partners are frustrated. Stop using SNA for political objectives! All Somalis should priorities the war against Al-Shabab & IS Somalia. We should also focus on curtailing Israeli influence in the North. We are under an existential threat!

#HARGEISA: Former Somaliland leader, Muse Bihi previously launched a scathing attack against incumbent Abdirahman Irro. “While there is an ongoing bombardment of #Gaza, he is the first President to visit (Israel) & stand next to Netanyahu and support him. Where’s the justice? Where is the freedom? Where are the rights? We wish success to people of Palestine to gain their freedom… We’re opposed to anyone against Muslims”. #Somalia

“I want to tell Somalis that we are another state that has joined the Somali people” says Irro. A “new state” cannot emerge from dismantling Somali unity and history. He says Somaliland can help Somalia. How about number 1, stop relations with UAE & Israel come to the negotiation table. As Irro admits, Somaliland’s people are Somali, the land is Somali & the struggle for Somaliweyn was built with the blood and sacrifices of northerners as much as southerners. You cannot separate yourself from your own blood, history, language & identity while still claiming the Somali name. Our vision is trying to unite the Somali people, from Djibouti to Jigjiga to Garissa. Not create more division ⤵️

“For three years, Northeastern State has refrained from attacking anyone. However, from today we will attack any that attacks us. (If Hargeisa continues its activities), we will retialate. As for those that switched to Somaliland, add them to your POWs”, said Northeastern State leader, Firdhiye following recent events. This comes NE state Parliament voted to prosecute POWs in #Laascaanood. Message is clear. #Somalia

#SOMALIA: During the Somali National Maritime Conference in Mogadishu, outgoing President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud confirmed that mainland Somali coast line is just shy of 4,000km. The EEZ of the Somali Republic is more than double its land mass. It worries our neighbours for obvious reasons. Somalis are the natural economic hegemony of the Horn. We are the gateway to East Africa. 🇸🇴 future relies building the coastal infrastructure & blue economy. That’s a fact. But, actions speak louder than words. Good speech translate to nothing.

This is the reality in #Mogadishu today. A disabled man, who spent his life savings building a home for his family, has it demolished without warning, due process, or compensation. No notice. No opportunity to prepare. Just devastation and a family left with nothing. Even if these properties sit on government land, this is not how a state should act. The rule of law requires due process centred around transparency & humane treatment including fair notice, proper court orders & compensation or resettlement if needed. Anything less erodes trust and punishes the very people a government is meant to protect. Heartbreaking stuff ⤵️

🇪🇹 𝐏𝐌 𝐀𝐛𝐢𝐲 𝐀𝐡𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐬 𝐍𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐬 𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐤𝐬 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐞 In an alarming speech before the Ethiopian Parliament, a heated PM Abiy lays out his demands for the right to own of region of coast along the Red Sea or Gulf of Aden region. He said: “25 million people from Massawa to Mogadishu have 5,000km of coast, where is the justice for 130 million people inside #Ethiopia?”. In exchange for the transfer of ownership of a coastal region, he offered: - A share in the newly built GERD (10% to 20%) or; - A share in Ethiopian Airways (10% to 20%) or; - An exchange of land. 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐟 𝐍𝐨 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝 In a comment of frustration, PM Abiy warned that if no deal was reached, “it will create problems for all countries”. He referenced the limiting of Shabelle or Jubba river to #Somalia, Tekezé River to #Eritrea, Omo river to #Kenya or Baro River to #SouthSudan or even limit the #NileRiver to #Sudan & #Egypt as a response.

𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚 𝐅𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐀𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐈𝐬𝐫𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐍𝐒𝐂 𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐅𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐞 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐦𝐬 In a blistering rebuke, Somali Ambassador Abukar Osman (Baale) condemned Israel for attempting to lecture the international community on international law and order while it continues the illegal occupation of Palestinian territory. He categorically rejected Israel’s claims of “genocide” in northern Somalia, expressing outrage at the sheer hypocrisy of such accusations coming from a state that carries out mass killing & collective punishment in Gaza on a daily basis. The Ambassador further exposed the deliberate distortion at play, stressing that the so-called “Somaliland” Israel claims to recognise represents only the Northwestern region, while the Northeastern State remains firmly part of the Federal Government of Somalia. He also underscored that the people of #Awdal have unequivocally rejected both the genocide narrative & Israel’s illegitimate recognition. #Somalia will not accept lectures on law, morality or sovereignty from an occupying power.

#SOMALIA: Villa Somalia deploys dozens of soldiers in the capital, Mogadishu ahead of protests planned by the opposition tomorrow. Hassan Sheikh is very careless. Clearly, he is willing to shed blood to maintain power. Whatever happens is on his head. This will be his legacy.
