Hundreds of Somali Commandos Complete Advanced Training in Turkey

Hundreds of Somali commandos completed advanced training in Isparta, Türkiye on Friday.

The completion of the gruelling training at the hands of top Turkish experts marks another significant step in bolstering Somalia’s military capabilities.

This advanced training, part of the ongoing defense cooperation between Somalia and Türkiye, focuses on enhancing the skills of elite forces to tackle security challenges, particularly the persistent threat posed by Al-Shabaab militants.

These commandos are expected to play a pivotal role in improving stability and ensuring the safety of Somali citizens.

This collaboration underscores Türkiye’s commitment to supporting Somalia’s fight against terrorism and efforts to build a self-reliant and professional military force.
