Indeed.

Residents of Dhahar in Badhan region have demonstrated in support of Somaliland army after it expelled electoral officials from Puntland whose presence in the town was said to related with preparing the groundwork of upcoming parliamentary elections in the region which are due to be held next month. This comes after another similar incident which took place two days ago in the town of Bahdan when Somaliland security forces lodged some officials from Puntland who were at the time staying in a hotel and thought to be were arrested but later released when local elders intervened and ordered to leave. Previously both Somaliland and Puntland administration were based side by side in Bahdan region of Sanaag , until two day ago when Somaliland security forces government assumed full control of the town and check points have been setup on all the major roads to the town. Somaliland has already beefed up security in the region and is determined to fend off any attempts to destabilize its borders. Puntland has in the past actively been funding and engaging with underground movement in a bid to instigate armed conflicts in the eastern regions of Somaliland so as to undermine its fledging Sovereignty.

Saturday, June 29, 2013 MOGADISHU (Reuters) - Dozens of people were feared killed in two days of fierce fighting for control of a strategic Somali port city, according to witness and militia accounts on Saturday, despite efforts to prevent the clashes escalating into broader clan warfare. Scores have died in sporadic fighting in Kismayu since Ahmed Madobe, leader of the Ras Kamboni militia, was chosen by a regional assembly to lead Somalia's southern Jubaland region, where the port is located. The conflict between Madobe's supporters and a rival claimant to the leadership, Barre Hirale, widely seen as backed by the federal government in Mogadishu, has raised the prospect of a return of the kind of clan fighting that tore Somalia apart more than two decades ago. A shopkeeper, Bile Mohamed, speaking to Reuters by telephone from central Kismayu, said he had counted nine dead bodies on a road, although he said shooting had stopped. Hussein Ali, from another area of Kismayu, said he saw 12 corpses. "I am afraid scores died in the alleys and inside houses," said Ali, speaking from the area that he said had been a stronghold of Hirale. He also said fighting had ended. Hirale, who also spoke to Reuters by telephone, said he believed at least 50 fighters and civilians had been killed, while five people were injured in his home by shells. Poor communications and the dangers of going outside made it impossible to ascertain the true death toll. ENTRENCHING POSITIONS Worried that fighting could undermine fragile security gains secured by African peacekeepers, the United Nations called for talks. "At the same time as this new fighting has broken out, contacts are under way to put together an inclusive process to defuse tensions," the top U.N. diplomat in Somalia, Nicholas Kay, said in a statement. The fighting would entrench positions and "make it all the harder to achieve a settlement," Kay said. Witnesses said Kenyan troops, part of the African Union peacekeeping force, had been deployed to the port. Hirale said Kenya, seen by many as close to Madobe, had intervened to push his forces back. Nairobi acknowledges no such allegiance. It was not immediately possible to obtain comment from the Kenyan forces on the ground in Jubaland. The African Union, which leads the peacekeeping force AMISOM, said the fighting "only serves to complicate and disrupt the process of stabilising Somalia". In a statement issued during the fighting on Saturday, Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud called on AU forces in Kismayu to "be neutral in the fighting between the groups" and to place themselves between the two sides to end the shooting. What happens in Kismayu is a test of the skill of Mogadishu's new government, in place for less than a year, in building a federation in a nation torn by war, deep clan rivalries and separatism. Regional and Western powers worry a slide back into conflict would hand an opportunity to al Shabaab Islamist militants to regroup and regain more territory. African troops led a campaign that drove the militants out of major centres, although al Shabaab still controls swathes of countryside.

One word: Bur-Karole . Last I checked Mogadishu had the highest rate of rape in the Somali areas, with so called "government troops" engaging in it themselves.

Gunter Bischopp is deported and his not impregnating anyone. Why are Ugandan and Burundian soldiers impregnating poor women in Mogadishu out of wedlock ? By 2016 25% of Mogadishu could have Ugandan ancestry.

It is not absurd, it is to preserve national identity. We don't want all kinds of groups from gypsies to Somalians to get citizenship in Somaliland.

Barclays closure of accounts postponed A money transfer system allowing UK families to send cash back home is under threat after Barclays said it wouldn’t do business with transfer firms. Jamal Osman reports on the problem facing Somalia. Hawa Abdulle, a Somali mother, her children and their extended family members are able to eat a simple meal thanks to family members who live in Britain. Millions of Somalis depend on money sent to them by relatives living abroad. In fact, money transfers are the backbone of the Somali economy. British-Somalis send up to £100m every year and for their relatives back home, it makes up 60 per cent of their annual income. But word has reached Somalia that because of a decision by British banks, this crucial pipeline is about to be cut off. “We have heard the British are stopping our money,” Ms Abdulle told us. “We depend on this little money that our relatives send us. We request the British, please do not stop this money coming. We don’t have any other income to pay for our children’s school, rent or anything else.” From their office on the streets of Mogadishu to their base here in London, Somali money transfer firms, locally known as Hawalas, is how the society stays connected. Under pressure Hawalas have already been under pressure especially since the US terrorist attack on 11 September, 2001. Western governments have introduced many rules and regulations to control the flow of money. British authorities have access to Hawalas’s database and monitor how much money people send. And if they are suspicious about certain transactions they often call for an interview. We have heard the British are stopping our money. We depend on this little money that our relatives send us- Hawa Abdulle Like many immigrants, I go into one of the Hawala shops to send money to my family back home. It’s fast, reliable and the only legal way to make sure my relatives can eat, send children to school and get basic medical assistances. But time is running out for the Hawalas we use to transfer money to Somalia. These companies deposit our money into their British bank accounts. Most of the London-based banks have already stopped dealing with Hawalas. Barclays was the last one to do it. ‘Underground’ threat Now Barclays has written to Dahabshil, the largest Hawala in Somalia, and hundreds of companies like it telling them from next month, their accounts will be closed. And without British bank accounts these businesses won’t be able to operate legally. Abdirashid Duale, chief executive of Dahabshiil said: “We have a 15-year relationship with Barclays. As far as the account closure, we just received a letter which has been a surprise to us… This kind of action will go opposite of what the banks are trying to do. “If they are talking about money laundering and system, the closure of these accounts will lead to people going underground and sending money illegally. And I don’t think that is the interest of the UK or Barclays or the humanitarian situation that needs to be addressed.” ‘Criminal activity’ However Barclays is concerned that criminals and terrorists could use the existing system. In a statement, their spokesman said: “It is recognised that some money service businesses don’t have the proper checks in place to spot criminal activity and could therefore unwittingly be facilitating money laundering and terrorist financing. “We want to be confident that our customers can filter out those transactions…we regret the inconvenience that moving to another bank will cause. To assist customers find alternative banking services, we have given them double the normally permitted time, and will extend that where it is appropriate to do so.” Like many immigrants, I go into one of the Hawala shops to send money to my family back home- Jamal Osman Somali activists, who are angry about the decision made by Barclays have set up a petition calling on the government to intervene and to recognises the important role that remittances play in supporting the economy and people of Somalia. On Monday, the Foreign Office convened a meeting to consider in detail the issue of remittances to Somalia, which was also attended by the Home Office, the HMRC, the Serious Organised Crime Agency and the department for international development. A foreign office spokesperson told us: “officials are preparing an assessment of the impact on the economy and people of Somalia of Barclays’ decision to terminate banking services for a large number of money service businesses.” In Somalia, this industry is seen as the only successs story and a lifeline for millions. But later on Barclays told Channel 4 News it has now decided it will extend the deadline for some companies including Dahabshil. This will give some hope to millions of people but unless Somali companies find an alternative bank, a crisis may still be on the horizon.

Somali warlords fight over key southern port Thursday, June 27, 2013 AFP At least seven people have been killed in the latest fighting between rival Somali warlords battling for control of the southern port city of Kismayo, witnesses said Thursday. Gunmen from the Ras Kamboni militia of former Islamist warlord Ahmed Madobe who last month appointed himself “president” of the southern Jubaland region battled against forces loyal to Bare Hirale, a former Somali defence minister who also leads a powerful militia army. “Seven people, three of them civilians, were killed, and four others were injured,” said Ali Mohamed, a resident of Kismayo who saw the aftermath of one battle on Wednesday.”The tensions are still there,” Mohamed added. Several rival factions claim ownership of Kismayo, a former stronghold of the Al-Qaeda-linked Shebab, where Kenyan troops in an African Union force are now based. Kenyan troops, who invaded Somalia in 2011, back Madobe’s control of the strategic and economic hub, but neither the title of “president” nor the region of Jubaland is recognised by the weak central government in Mogadishu. Kismayo was reported quiet on Thursday morning, but residents were nervous and said they feared further fighting. “The fighting was very heavy on Wednesday, and so far we have not heard of any negotiations going on to end it,” said Idris Moalim Ali, another Kismayo resident.”We are worried about this conflict, several people died on Wednesday.” Two days of heavy fighting earlier this month between Madobe’s forces and gunmen loyal to Iftin Hassan Basto, another leader claiming to be president left at least 31 dead and 38 wounded, according to the UN’s World Health Organisation. Human Rights Watch this week warned that rival factions fighting in Kismayo have “showed little apparent regard for the safety of civilians around them”, warning that in the clashes on June 7-8, mortar rounds or artillery shells reportedly smashed into crowded civilian neighbourhoods as well as a medical clinic. Jubaland lies in the far south of Somalia and borders both Kenya and Ethiopia, and control is split between multiple forces including clan militia, the Shebab, Kenyan and Ethiopian soldiers. Jubaland joins other semi-autonomous regions of the fractured Horn of Africa nation, including Puntland in the northeast which wants autonomy within a federation of states and Somaliland in the northwest, which fiercely defends its self-declared independence. Kenya views the region as a key buffer zone to protect is borders, but in Jubaland, has ended up backing forces opposing the central government it is mandated and funded by the UN and European Union to support. http://hiiraan.com/news4/2013/Jun/30041/somali_warlords_fight_over_key_southern_port.aspx
