Fact check: Somaliland pushed Puntland few times from Lasanod area with the help of paid Garaad Militias, but let's not get ahead ourselves. Many areas including Sanaag bar Ceerigo and Ceel Afwayn are controlled by Puntland and it is fact. Puntland militias are also in Buhodle district, Boocame and Taleex. So, men bootada naga jooiya, you can push each other but the two maamul goboled are not much different in terms of military power. When the national army comes to the equation that is when the balance will hinch. Inta ka horaysa ciyaal ha iska laynina.
Also, Puntland has been fighting three ways. Shabab/Daacish in the Golis mountains, Galmudug in Galkacyo. It should have been a walk in the park for Somaliland since 30 years they did not fight any one else apart from Puntland. Contarary, after 30 years you still talking about closing the border so you have nothing to be proud of.
