Turkish F-16 fighter jets were seen taking off early Saturday from Aden Adde International Airport in Mogadishu, according to videos circulating on social media. The aircraft reportedly carried out airstrikes along the Shabelle River, particularly near the Hawaadleey area, where fighters from Al-Shabaab had dug defensive trenches after being pushed out of the town. Somali forces continue ground operations in the region with aerial support from Turkey, as security cooperation between Somalia and Turkey deepens. Local sources also say Turkish aircraft are increasingly monitoring Somalia’s borders amid the expanding military partnership between the two countries.

A Turkish vessel carrying APCs and other military equipment reportedly suffered a systems’ failure off the coast of Somalia’s Puntland state. Maritime police from Puntland boarded the vessel and recorded purported video clips of the military vehicles. A security source says there are discussions about possibly towing the vessel to a port along the coastline. The source said they believe the ship’s destination was Mogadishu where Turkey runs a military training facility. Turkey also recently increased its military presence in Somalia. It’s unclear if the APCs are for the Turkish forces or Turkish-trained Somali soldiers. (The unverified clip was shared by a local source)

TURKEY-SOMALIA: FRIENDSHIP OR COLONISATION? They say Turkey is ‘helping’ Somalia. But what kind of help is it if, in return, Ankara gets to keep Somali ports and oil, and expand its military footprint in the region? For over a decade, Turkey has presented itself as Africa’s ‘Muslim brother,’ stepping into Somalia with aid, business deals and military training. But behind the humanitarian PR, who really benefits? In Mogadishu, Turkey now runs two of Somalia’s most strategic assets: the airport and the seaport. A Turkish firm gets 45% of port revenues. That’s nearly half of Somalia’s maritime income going to a foreign country. Moreover, since signing a ten-year oil-exploration deal with Somalia, Turkey has made a 20-billion-barrel discovery worth 1.6 trillion dollars. And Ankara also has its biggest overseas military base in Somalia. Let’s be honest: this is influence and exploitation, not solidarity and friendship. And this isn’t about Turkey and Somalia alone. It’s about Africa’s sovereignty, our right to negotiate on an equal footing, to develop without being cornered, to say ‘no’ when help comes with strings attached. Because if we trade our ports, our oil and our independence for short-term support, who are we really building for?
