Bakool iyo Muqdisho oo la kala go’doomiyay BAKOOL (KEYDMEDIA) - Kooxda shabaab ee ka talisa gobalka Bakool ayaa amar ku bixisay in aanay dadka ku nool gobalkaasi u soo socdaali Karin magaalada Muqdisho. Mid ka mid ah saraakiisha shabaab oo ka hadlay masaajid ku yaala gobalka Bakool ayaa sheegay in aanu qofna u soo socdaali Karin Muqdisho waxaana uu xusay cidii socdaal lagu arko in ay ciqaab mudan doonto. Waxaa kaloo sarkaalkan u hadlay Shabaab uu sheegay in xittaa lala socon doono dhaq dhaqaaqa telfoonada isla markaana qofkii telfoon kula soo hadla qof ka tirsan ama ka agdhaw dowlada si weyn loo ciqaabi doono. Tani ayaa sababteeda lagu sheegay in saraakiil badan oo ka tirsan ajaanibta hogaamisa shabaab in ay ku qul quleen gobalkaasi. Xigasho

Turkey evacuates dozens of Somali blast victims MOGADISHU (Reuters) - Turkey evacuated dozens of severely wounded blast victims from the Somali capital Mogadishu on Thursday, two days after a suicide bomber killed 72 people in the rebel al Shabaab group's deadliest attack since launching an insurgency in 2007. The truck bomb wounded more than 100 others, many of whom suffered severe burns and broken limbs, overwhelming the coastal city's ill-equipped hospitals. African peacekeepers said a lorry laden with drums of fuel rammed a checkpoint outside a checkpoint housing government ministries, where students had gathered to register for scholarships offered by Turkey. Keen to strengthen its relations with Africa, Turkey has ramped up its aid presence in famine-struck Somalia and promised major infrastructure projects in the capital. "Some of them are unconscious. These 36 victims are the first (to be evacuated) among those who are in a serious condition and can't be treated here in Mogadishu," Justice Minister Ahmed Ugas Bille told Reuters at the airport. They were expected to arrive in Turkey later on Thursday. Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan visited Somalia in August as part of his country's push to deepen its ties with Africa. The al Qaeda-allied rebels pulled most of their fighters out of Mogadishu in August but warned Somalis of further strikes on the city. "Al Shabaab's heinous attack in Mogadishu shows utter disregard for civilian life," Daniel Bekele, Africa director at Human Rights Watch, said in a statement. Xigasho

And they did. Dhaawacyo loo qaaday dalka Turkiga Turkiga abaalkee Soomaalida u fashay waligeeda lama iloowi doono. I hope a future government will name an avenue weyn Xamar ku yaalo after Turkiga. It is the least we can do.

Hal mar ayaa kula kulmay Faadumo Qaasin iyo gabdhaheeda goob aroos ahayd some 20 years ago in Xamar. Soomaalida aad iyo aad u jeclaayeen Faadumo. She was a true icon. Markaa geerideeda maqlayna waa naxay. Eebboow u naxariiso, janadaada fardowsana ka waraabi -- aamiin, aamiin.

Waligey dadka iyo dalka Soomaaliya oo dowlad kale saan oo kale u caawineyso ma aanan arag. Waxaa ka cabsanaa inay Turkiga ka faraxalato xaalka Soomaalida maadaama Soomaalida siyaadeeda qalafsan lagu yaqaano dad aan abaal iyo mahadba lahayn. I really fear that. Turkiga oo qaadaya dhaawacyada qarixii shalay Dowladda Turkiga aya maanta ogolaatay in ay dalkeeda u qaado qaar ka mid ah dhaawacyada qarixii shalay ka dhacay xarunta Hargaha iyo Saamaha. Ogolaanshahan ayaa imaanaya xilli m/weynaha Soomaaliya iyo r/wasaaraha Turkiga ay ka wada hadleen weerarka argagixiso ee shalay Muqdisho ka dhacay. Sida ay qoreen wakaalada wararka dalka Turkiga, r/wasaara Erdogan oo xiriir la sameeyay m/weyne Shariif ayaa uga tacsiyeeyay weerarkii shalay. Dowladda Turkiga ayaa shaqaale isugu jira gar-gaar, injineero, macallimiin, dhakhaatiir iyo waliba safiir ayaa waxa ay ka joogaan magaalada Muqdisho. Tan iyo booqashadii r/wasaare Erdogan ku tagay Muqdisho, Turkigu waxa uu gacan weyn siinayaa dadka iyo dowladda Soomaaliyeed. Xigasho
