A pro-Palestine protest by dozens of local residents was held in the streets of Somalia’s capital city on Friday.
One of the leaders of the protest, Nabadon Sherif, addressed his fellow protestors.
His remarks at the pro-Palestine protest in Mogadishu have stirred significant attention.
During the demonstration, Sherif openly criticized countries like Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Egypt for their perceived lack of support for Palestine.
He emphasized solidarity with Palestine, even advocating for a force of 10,000 armed men from Somalia to assist in Palestine’s struggle against Israel.
His comments underscore the strong pro-Palestinian sentiment in Somalia.
The comments also reflect growing calls within the Somali community for active support of the Palestinian cause amid ongoing regional tensions.
