Hargeysa (Baraarugtv.com)-Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Somaliland strongly condemns the recent aggression by East Sool’s militias aligned with the Federal Government of Somalia, who launched an unprovoked attack on pastoralist communities in the Dhurmadare area of the Sanaag region.

Somaliland National Intelligence Agency (NIA) confirms the assault was orchestrated under the directive of Somalia’s Prime Minister, following his politically motivated visit to East Sool, aimed at inciting unrest within Somaliland’s borders.

Such actions are a direct violation of regional peace and an affront to the principles of sovereignty and neighbourly relations. At a time when Somaliland continues to champion stability and cooperation in the Horn of Africa, this provocation undermines collective efforts for peace.

The Republic of Somaliland reaffirms its commitment to defending its people, safeguarding its territorial integrity, and promoting peaceful coexistence in the region.

The Government of Somaliland urges the international community and regional partners to take serious note of this escalation and support measures to de-escalate tensions and uphold regional peace.
