Fahfaahin iyo warar dheeraad ah ayaa kasoo baxaya dagaal qaraar oo maanta labo malleeshiya beeleed ku dhex maray magaalada Gaalkacyo, ee xarunta gobolka Mudug. Saraakiisha laamaha amniga Gaalkacyo, ayaa xaqiijiyay in dagaalkii maanta ay ku dhinteen ugu yaraan 5 ruux, oo labo kamid ah ay ahaayeen Askar kamid ah ciidamada isku-dhafka ee ka kala socda Galmudug iyo Puntland ee loo xilsaarey amaanka magaalada. Dagaalka ayaa billowday saaka saacadihii hore kadib markii ganacsato kasoo kala jeeda Galmudug iyo Puntland ay ku murmeen Bakhaar lagu iibiyo cuntooyinka oo dhawaan laga dhisay halka loo yaqaano Cir-toogtaha ee Suuqa Gaalkacyo. Muranka ayaa dhaliyay dagaalka, iyadoo malleeshiyaad ay kala wateen Ganacsatada reer Puntland iyo kuwa Galmudug ay foodda is-dareen, kuwaasi oo mudo saacado ah ku dagaalamay Suuqa, iyadoo labada dhinac uu iska hor-imaadka kasoo gaarey khasaaro. Ma jirto war kasoo baxay Galmudug iyo Puntland oo ku aadan dagaalkii maanta ee Gaalkacyo, balse ciidamada isku dhafka ayaa kala dhex-galay labada dhinac, iyagoo ku guuleystay in xaaladda caadi kusoo celiyay gelinkii dambe. Magaalada Gaalkacyo ayaa ah xudunta colaadda Puntland iyo Galmudug oo mudo ka badan 20 soo jeetamaysay, iyadoo ay fashilmeen heshiisyo nabadeed oo ay galeen hogaamiyaashii hore iyo kuwa hadda talada haya ee labada dhinac.

Warbixin kasoo baxday xafiiska ciidanka PSF ee Puntland ayaa lagu yiri “Argagixisadu isma qarin karayaan, ciidamada Puntland na way sii wadi doonaan hawlgallada ay dhulka Puntland kaga xoraynayaan cadowga ku soo duulay , waxaana ka go’an ciidamada difaaca Puntland in ay argagixisada u diidaan in aysa helin goobo ay ku badbaadaan”. Warbixinta ayaa lagu sheegay intii uu socday hawlgalku in maleeshiyaad ka tirsan Ururka Daacish looga saarey goobo ay kaga dhuumaalaysanayeen deegaano hoostaga degmada Qandala,islamarkaana ciidamadu gubeen godad raashin ugu kaydsana, halka ay burburiyeen saldhigyo kooxdaasi ku lahayd Aaga hawlgalku ka socday, sidoo kalena la qabtey qalab ay ku samaysan jireen walxaha qarxa.

Ethnic animosity unleashed in Ethiopia has displaced hundreds of thousands as well as rendering all manner of usually sacrosanct loyalties obsolete. “I was making my husband dinner in the evening, but an hour after he returned from work, he kicked me out of our home,” Zahala Shekabde, a Somali married to an Oromo, says. “I pleaded with him, told him I loved him and that I have nothing else, but he said he didn’t want to listen and I must go otherwise he would hurt me.” She left with nothing other than three children from a former marriage — her husband would not let her take her youngest child from their marriage. Other displaced ethnic Somali with Zahala from all over Ethiopia’s Oromia region say there was no warning and explanation given for their evictions, other than the local Oromo where they lived, including local officials, telling them it was revenge for what had happened to Oromo in Jijiga, the capital of the Somali region. Upwards of 50 000 ethnic Oromo had to leave the Somali region and beyond (officials from the opposing Oromia and Somali regions dispute whether the sum applies just to the Somali region or to the Horn of Africa — Oromo have also left Djibouti and Somaliland, where two Ethiopians were reportedly killed in the capital, Hargeisa). This sequence of tit-for-tat ethnic-based violence and evictions was sparked after Oromo protests on September 12 in the town of Aweday, between the cities of Harar and Dire Dawa near the border between the two regions, led to rioting that left 18 dead, according to official figures, the majority being Somali traders of khat, the plant that when chewed acts as a mild stimulant. Somali who fled Aweday say it was closer to 40 killed. Following Aweday, the Somali regional government began evicting Oromo from Jijiga and the region. Officials say this was for the Oromo’s own safety, and that not one Oromo died from ethnic violence in the region — a fact disputed by displaced Oromo. “My husband was sick at home when I left for work on September 20,” says Fateer Shafee from a village near Jijiga. “Later, I got a call from him saying I should come and collect the children as there was conflict nearby. When I got back, I found the children, but our home had been burnt with my husband still inside. Everyone was running and hadn’t been able to get him out.” The numerous camps that have popped up and public buildings commandeered to absorb the displaced, Oromo and Somali tell equally convincing stories of ethnic violence, primarily carried out, they claim, by each region’s special police, while exhibiting even more convincing physical wounds of that violence. Meanwhile, both regional governments deny their special police were involved while accusing the other of Machiavellian plots. At the federal level, the government faces accusations ranging from not doing enough to turning a blind eye to even abetting violence for political ends. Another option is it may simply not have the capacity to do enough, so widespread is the violence. “It’s very difficult to tell if there have been acts of omission or commission at all levels,” the head of one international humanitarian organisation in Ethiopia, who spoke on condition of anonymity, says. The scale of what’s happened becomes clearer 80km east of Dire Dawa, just over the regional border in the Somali Region, where two giant camps for displaced Somalis are co-located in the lee of the Kolechi Mountains.In the older camp are 5 300 Somali households — household size varies from six to 10 people — displaced by a mixture of drought and ethnic violence since 2015. In the newer camp are 3 850 households displaced by the recent violence. “It’s uniformed police carrying out the bloodshed,” one Somali man at the camps says. Another man had to flee Oromia’s Bale zone, hundreds of kilometres to the southwest, though he says that 500 Somali households remain there under constant harassment. “They are rich farmers and are attacked each day,” he says. “The local Oromo tell the Ethiopian soldiers there one thing and then do another — it’s the worst example of conflict as the farmers are totally isolated and surrounded, and have no way of getting away.” Inhabitants in both camps pull back clothing to reveal old bullet wounds, scars and lesions from burns, broken bones that never healed, and more. A number of displaced Somali say they survived thanks to the intervention of soldiers from the national Ethiopian Defence Force. But it wasn’t enough to allow them to remain, or to return. “If the federal government sends forces to keep the peace they stay for a week or a month and then after they leave it happens again,” one Somali man says. “We can’t risk staying.” Oromia and Somali are the two largest regions in the country by area size, sharing a border of more than 1 400km. The Oromo constitute the largest proportion of Ethiopia’s population, numbering about 35 million, a factor Ethiopia’s other ethnic groups remain deeply conscious of — especially its 6,5 million Somalis. Ethnic conflict along the border between the two regions and in the regional rural hinterlands has long occurred, and can be traced to grievances and still standing tensions from the Ethio-Somali war of the 1970s and further back to historical tensions over Oromo migration due to their significant numbers. But ethnic violence in urban areas well removed from the border is particularly rare. Many say the violence is all the more shocking within communities that integrated peacefully for centuries, and within which intermarriage between Oromo and Somali was the norm. In 2004, a referendum to decide the fate of more than 420 kebeles around the border — Ethiopia’s smallest administrative unit — gave 80% of them to the Oromia Region. This led to thousands of Somalis leaving areas for fear of repercussions. The referendum still has not been fully resolved, which some say could be one factor behind the current conflict, as may be the on-going drought putting further pressure on pasture and resources — but only to a degree. “There’s been drought before and no violence happened,” the vice administrator of one of the Somali regional zones badly hit by the drought says. “The main reason is politics and is hidden — this is all man-made.” Ethiopia’s ethnic federalist system devolves power to regional states. Some observers note how this leaves the government in a quandary of respecting that devolution while also protecting the constitutional rights of Ethiopians, especially minorities, as regions increasingly flex their devolved muscles. Recent trouble primarily occurred where notable minorities existed: Somali in Aweday, for example, and Oromo in Jijiga. More diverse cities such as Dire Dawa, with a less clear majority, have escaped violence for now. Meanwhile, accusations go beyond political machinations by regional powerbrokers and the federal government to include the Ethiopian diaspora opposition and social media. “The Oromo are being directed from Minnesota in America,” one Somali official says. “The Oromo in government don’t have enough respect or influence to co-ordinate this.” Source: NewDay

Muqdisho (Caasimada Online)-Doorashadii ka dhacday Somaliland 13kii bishan Nofembar, ayaa kusoo dhammaatay si nabad gelyo ah, waxaana madaxweyne loo doortay Muuse Biixi oo ahaa musharraxa xisbiga Kulmiye ee hadda talada haya. Mid ka mid ah waxyaabihii uu ololaha doorashada ku galay ayaa ah in wadahallada Somaliland iyo Soomaaliya dib loo bilaabo, si cusubna loo wajoho. Wax wada hadalo ah ma aysan dhicin tan iyo intii lagu kala kacay kulankii Turkiga bishii Maarso ee 2015kii, sababahana waxaa qayb ka ahaa hoggaanka sare ee labada dhinac oo uu xiliga kasii dhammaanayay. Balse maadaama hadda la doortay hoggaan cusub oo labada dhinac ah oo haysta sharciyad buuxda sanooyinka soo socda, waxaa rajo weyn laga qabaa in ay dib u biloowdaan wadahadallada sida uu qabo Guuleed Axmed Jaamac oo ah cilmi baare ka tirsan xarunta daraasaadka siyaasadda ee CPA ee fadhigeedu yahay magaalada Hargeysa. “Madaxweynaha cusub ee hadda la doortay waxyaabaha horyaalla ee ugu muhiimsan ayay ka mid tahay wadahadalada Somaliland iyo Soomaaliya, intii ololaha doorashada lagu jireyna waxa ay ka mid ahaayeen waxyaabaha ay xisbiyada ka hadlayeen, wuxuuna marar badan muujiyay in aanu ku faraxsanayn qaabka uu wadahadalka hadda u socday, waxaa la filayaa in isbadal ku iman doono qaabkii ay u socdeen” ayuu yiri Guuleed. “Murashaxan wuxuu ahaa qofka ugu adadag xaga wadahadallada, wuxuu muujiyay dhaliilo badan, Muuse waxaa lagu yaqaanaa in uu aad ugu ad adagyahay dhinaca gooni isu taagga, waxaa koobaad ee uu diidanaa waxa ay ahaayeen in Turkiga uu wadahadallada marti galiyo, iyo in la helo cid dhexdhexaadin rasmi ah samaysa” ayuu Guuleed ku daray. Wadahalladu waxay billoowdeen sanadkii 2012kii ka dib markii madaxweyne Siilaanyo uu baarlamaanka Somaliland ka ansixiyay ogolaansho ah in dowladiisa ay wadahadal la furi karto dowladda federaalka Soomaaliya. Muuse Biixi oo xisbigiisa Kulmiye uu wadahalada bilaabay ayaa hadal uu ka jeediyay dooddii BBC-da u qabatay musharixiinta ayuu ku yiri “Sidii Turkiga ka dhacday ee nalagu yidhi adinku iska sheekeysta anagu diyaar u manihin. Waxaan rabnaa inay jirto cid dhexdexaad ah oo inoo kala gar naqda” Xarunta daraasaadka siyaasadda ee CPA ayaa cilmi baaris ay ka qortay wadahadallada bishii diseembar ee 2015kii ku waafaqsan Muuse Biixi aragtidiisa, waxaana lagu sheegay in uusan jirin hal dal oo loo igmaday dhexdhexaadinta, taasi badalkeeda ay arrinta faraha kula jiraan dalalka Turkiga, Imaaraadka, Britain iyo Jabuuti oo dhammaantood leh dano kala duwan oo ay wadahalada ka leeyihiin. Saansaantii ugu horeysay ee muujinaysa wax rajo ah ayaa ah hadalkii uu dhawaan soo saaray madaxweynaha Soomaaliya Maxamed Cabdullaahi Farmaajo, kaas oo uu ugu hambalyeeyay madaxweynaha cusub ee Somaliland. “Madaxweynaha la doortay Mudane Muuse Biixi Cabdi waxaan u ballanqaadayaa inaan kala shaqeynayo dar-dargelinta wadahadalladii u dhaxeeyey Dowlada Federaalka iyo Somaliland si aan u soo celinno kalsoonida shacabka.” Ayuu ku yiri war qoraal ah oo kasoo baxay Villa Soomaaliya. Balse sidaas uma sahlana hawsha, waxaana jira caqabado ku gudban wadahadallada sida uu qabo Guuleed Axmed Jaamac “Si cilmiyeysan oo niyad sami ah laguma billaabin wadahadalada, waxay ahaayeen kuwa loo galay in wadahal la galo uun, labada dhinac waa in ay wax ka badalaan ergooyinka ay dirsanayaan, qorshayaasha ay la tagayaan, waa in dad joogto ah loo xilsaaro oo maalin kasta wajiyo cusub oon wixii hore aan ka warqabin aanan loo dirin, ka dibna meel eber ah aan wax laga soo bilaabin” ayuu yiri. Daraasaddii ay xarunta horey u samaysay ayay sidoo kale ku sheegtay in qodobbada lagu heshiiyo wadahalada oo aanan la fulinin ay horseedi karto in wadahadalada ay guuleysan waayaan, tusaale ahaan in wadahadalladii lasoo afjaray 9kii Luulyo 2013kii lagu heshiiyay in maamulka hawada Soomaaliya si wadajir ah loo maamulo, Hargeysana xarun looga dhigo. Balse Somaliland ayaa dowladda federaalka ku eedeysay inay jabisay qodobkaasi. Dalabka labada dhinac Waxay daraasaddu intaas ku dartay in hadallada aan haboonayn ee warbaahinta laga sheegayo aysan caawinaynin in natiijo fiican la gaaro. Dalabka ugu weyn ee ay Somaliland ka doonayso wadahalada ayaa ah in ay aqoonsi hesho, balse dhanka Soomaaliya dalabkaasi ma ahan mid sahlan aqbalistiisa. Doorashada sida wanaagsan ku soo dhamaatay ee Somaliland ayaa waxay dad badan filayaan in ay usoo jiidi doonto in caalamka uu usoo jeedsado arrimaha aqoonsiga, balse sida uu qabo Guuleed doorasho hannaan dimoqraadiyadeed ku dhacday ma ahan mid soo dadajinaysa aqoonsiga ” doorashada dhicitaankeeda waxaan rajaynayaa in ay soo jiidato beesha caalamka oo taageero iyo caawimaad siiso Somaliland, balse anigu ma qabo in ay aqoonsi keeni karto” ayuu yiri Guuleed. Dadka reer Somaliland waa ay la qabsadeen xaqiiqada ah in aysan sahlanayn in aqoonsi la helo maadaamaa hadda 26 sano laga joogo markii gooni isu taagga lagu dhawaaqay, walina aanan la helin hal dal oo aqoonsada, waxaa kale oo la’isku raacsanyahay in sida uu noqonayo mustaqbalka Somaliland ay ku xiranyihiin waxa kasoo baxa wadahallada labada dhinac. Balse in wadahalada ay najaxaan lafteeda ayaa waxa ay ku xirantahay madaxweynaha cusub Muuse Biixi iyo kan Soomaaliya Farmaajo sida ay hawshan isugu xilqaamaan iyo tanaasulaadka ay sameeyaan. Mid ka mid ah talooyinka wax ku oolka ah ee ay daraasadda ku sheegtay xarunta CPA waxaa ka mid ah in bulshada qeybaheeda kala duwan laga qeybgaliyo wadahalada, kadibna heshiisyada la gaaro laga ansixiyo baarlamaannada Somaliland iyo Federaalka. bbc Caasimada Online Xafiiska Muqdisho Caasimada@live.com

State Occasion: Sweden Has an Eye on Somaliland’s Independence CC BY-SA 4.0 / Vladimir Lysenko / Somalia_(Somaliland) The self-proclaimed African nation of Somaliland has gained considerable attention across the world, including in Scandinavia. In Sweden, one of the first EU nations to recognize Palestine and one which has also been toying with the recognition of Western Sahara, several forces pushing for recognizing Somaliland have emerged. Despite remaining unrecognized by the international community, Somaliland has recently held its third presidential election, which became its sixth vote since proclaiming independence from Somalia 26 years ago. Michael Walls, chairman of the international monitor team, argued that the Somaliland election could be seen as an acknowledgement in itself. “Although Somaliland is not recognized by the outside world, the fact that it was possible to implement this [the election] is in some way an acknowledgment of its own,” Michael Walls said, as quoted by the Nyheter Idag outlet. CC BY 2.0 / JUSTIN RAYCRAFT / KAMPALA, UGANDA Cha-Ching! Ugandan Man Steals Millions From Swedish Aid, Becomes Landlord In an email questionnaire about the recognition of Somaliland sent out by the outlet, two Swedish parties answered positively.The Christian Democrats (KD) stated that despite the fragile situation in the conflict-hit country, it has been moving in the opposite direction, toward peace and stability, although its relationship with Somalia remains sensitive. “The KD believe that the recognition of Somaliland should be done in cooperation with EU member states, when the conflict has approached a solution,” the KD responded. The Sweden Democrats, however, voiced a more radical approach, supporting Somaliland’s independence. “Somaliland meets all the requirements the government has in order to recognize a country as independent. They have control over their territory and serve as a major example in their part of the world, with democratic elections, well-functioning institutions and relative peace and stability,” Markus Wiechel said, arguing that the state of affairs in Somaliland differs a lot from the rest of what is still known as Somalia. Wiechel also contended that Somaliland’s recognition would serve as a good example of “what can be achieved while resolving conflicts with dialogue rather than violence.” Earlier this year, Somaliland’s Special Envoy to the EU Mikael Torstensson called the breakaway country “the most democratic in the Horn of Africa,” despite being surrounded by dictators, terrorists and pirates. “In one of the world’s most vulnerable areas — characterized by dictatorship, war and terrorism — the republic of Somaliland in the Horn of Africa is a brilliant exception. The country has developed into the region’s only functioning democracy, with constant in-depth work for human rights and gender equality. The country fulfills all criteria for full recognition, as the independent country it is,” Torstensson wrote in an opinion piece pushing for Somaliland’s recognition published by Värden Idag. Torstensson lauded Somaliland’s prowess in fighting terrorism and piracy, receiving refugees from Yemen and other neighboring countries as well as establishing a functioning education system encompassing over 30 universities. He also praised the security level in the country, citing the US government estimation of Somaliland’s capital Hargeisa as “the most secure” in all of Africa. Previously, Pål Wrange, professor of international law at Stockholm University, argued there were no legal obstacles to recognizing Somaliland. Somaliland is a self-declared state internationally recognized as an autonomous region of Somalia, from which it unilaterally proclaimed independence in 1991. Despite lacking official recognition, it currently has liaison officers in several countries, including Ethiopia, South Africa, France, Great Britain and Sweden.

China and Djibouti have agreed to form a ‘strategic partnership’ Chinese President Xi Jinping and Djibouti’s visiting leader Omar Ismail Guelleh, whose African nation is hosting China’s first overseas military base, agreed on Thursday to elevate their nations’ diplomatic relations. The two countries agreed to form a “strategic partnership” as Guelleh held talks with Xi at the imposing Great Hall of the People in Beijing. China has described the base on the Horn of Africa, which opened in August, as “defensive in nature”, saying it will provide support for naval escorts, UN peacekeeping, anti-piracy and evacuating Chinese nationals from the region in emergencies. Xi said relations between the two countries exemplify “the solidarity and mutual assistance among developing countries”. The Chinese leader thanked Guelleh for his congratulations sent after he was re-appointed head of the Communist Party last month. “I am a great friend of China,” Guelleh said. “I would like to recall the geostrategic place of Djibouti and its importance in this part of the world as an islet of stability and a crossroads of Asia, Africa and the Middle East.” The Chinese base is just a few miles from Camp Lemonnier, the United States’ only permanent base in Africa. A Pentagon report said the strategically-sited camp, “along with regular naval vessel visits to foreign ports, both reflects and amplifies China’s growing influence, extending the reach of its armed forces”. Home to only around 800,000 people, Djibouti also hosts troops from France and Japan. Beijing has made extensive infrastructure investments throughout the African continent as it seeks to gain access to natural resources and new markets. AFP
