Eritrea Sends Soldiers Into Djibouti

[Jacaylbaro]

Addis Ababa - Eritrean soldiers have crossed the border into Djibouti and begun building defences, Djiboutian officials said.

 

"Eritrean soldiers made an incursion into Djibouti territory two or three days ago in the Ras Doumeira area," an official who did not want to be identified said in a telephone interview.

 

"The situation is not clear," he said, adding, "Top level negotiations are under way to resolve the problem."

 

Another source said, "There are Eritreans in Doumeira and work is being done."

 

The source said trenches had been dug on both sides of the border, with the Eritreans infringing several hundred metres (yards) on to Djiboutian territory."

 

However the official said the Eritreans digging the trenches seemed to be civilian labourers and not troops.

 

"This region is very isolated and it was a week before Djibouti authorities realised what was going on." A military source said French forces based in Djibouti had carried out a reconnaissance Thursday at the government's request but had not been able to confirm an incursion."

 

Djibouti and Eritrea have clashed twice in the past over the border area situated at the southern end of Red Sea. In April 1996 they almost went to war after a Djibouti official accused Asmara of shelling the town of Ras Doumeira.

 

In 1999 Eritrea accused Djibouti of siding with Asmara's arch-foe Ethiopia while Djibouti alleged its neighbour was supporting Djiboutian rebels and had designs on the Ras Doumeira region, which Eritrea denied.

Djibouti (QARAN)- Dawladda Djibouti ayaa si rasmi ah ugu dhawaaqday inay ashkato ku saabsan dawladda Ereteriya u gudbisay bulshada Caalamka. Sidaas waxa cadeeyay Wasiirka Arrimaha dibadda Djibouti oo khamiistii shirjaraa’id ku qabtay magaalada Djibouti.

 

Sarkaal ka tirsan dawladda Djibouti ayaa dhawaan sheegay in ciidamada Ereteriya u soo tallaabeen xadka Djibouti iyagoo halkaas ka samaystay dhismayaal. Laakiin haddana maalmo ka dib ayay dawladda Djibouti sheegtay in labada Madaxweyne ee labadaas dal ka wada hadleen arrintaas islamarkaan la xalliyay.

 

Hase yeeshe Wasiirka Arrimaha dibadda ee Djibouti Maxamed Cali Yuusuf, ayaa waxa uu toddobaadkan mar kale sheegay inay dawlada Ereteriya ku soo xad gudubtay xuduudka wadankiisa Djibouti, waxaanu cadeeyay inay ashkato arrintaas ku saabsan u gudbiyeen Ururada Qaramada midoobay, Midowga Afrika iyo Jaamacadda Carabta iyo weliba urur goboleedka IGAD, “Koox xaqiiqo raadis ah oo ka socota bulshada Caalamka ayaa la filayaa inay halkaas [Xuduudka] gaadho maalmaha soo socda.” Ayuu yidhi Wasiirka Arrimaha dibadda ee Djibouti, waxaanu intaas raaciyay, “Djibouti waxay qaaday tallaabadan ka dib markii ay ogaatay in gabi ahaanba lagu xad gudbay xidhiidhkii iyo weliba Ereteriya oo diiday inay gasho wada hadal.”

 

Waxa uu Wasiirku sheegay in dawladda Ereteriya ciidamadeeda dib ugala baxday xuduudka, waxase uu xusay inay weli ku jiraan qayb ka mid ah, “Ereteriya dib ayay ula baxday ciidamadeeda, laakiin weli waxay ku jiraan qaybo ka mid ah dhulka Djibouti.”

Wasiirku waxa uu sheegay inaanay dawladiisu diyaar u ahayn xurguf iyo dagaal toona, ‘Walaalayaal dawladda Djibouti diyaar uma aha dagaal.” Ayuu yidhi Wasiirku, isaga oo xusay inay ka shaqayso xallinta mashaakilaadka gobolka Geeska Afrika.

 

Wakaaladaha wararka ayaa sheegaya inay Djibouti xuduudkeeda gaysay ciidamo kuwaas oo horfadhiya ciidamada Ereteriya ee ay Djibouti eedaynayso. Dhulkan ay ciidamada Ereteriya hadda yimaadeen ayay labada wadan hore isugu maandhaafeen. Waxaanay hadda u muuqdaan in diblomaasiyadu shaqayn weyday oo ay deeradu dhex miranayso

Rather they shopuld Politely asked President Afawerki to allow some 1.5 Muslim Eritreans in Sudan refugee camps since 80s to return their homes :cool:

If you some of you quick to talk Abdulahi Yusuf worshiping members of this forum knew anything about the make up of Djibouti, you would realize that the areas bordering Eritrea are for the most part NOT somali inhabited. Also, the 'Afar' (you know that rather significant other ethnicity that shares DJ with the somalis) also inhabit Eritrea and parts of Ethiopia. I think Guelleh is an alarmist, gunho moron, I bet those people doing the work don't even know they are creating a commotion with the government of Djibouti.

^Who cares if Somali inhabits there or not. The fact of the matter the area falls under the jurisdictional authority of the Djibouti government, which means, the land is the land of Djibouti.

If Djibouti asks the request of the French government, why not TFG? Djibouti and TFG are both "traitors" of their own people.

Much fuss about nothing! I mean, Americans are protecting Djibouti! Although this story will help some rationalise and feel secure about bringing Xabashis and supporting their destruction of Muqdisho!

[Jacaylbaro]

I hope Djibouti will not bring Xabashis to fight against Eritrea this time ,,,,,,
