Prime Minister Hamza Abdi Barre chaired an extraordinary meeting on Friday to discuss the ongoing security in Mogadishu, Somalia’s capital city.
The meeting highlights the Somali government’s intensified focus on addressing security challenges, particularly in the capital and surrounding regions.
The discussion centered on the ongoing efforts to combat terrorism, with a specific emphasis on neutralizing the Khawaarij threat—a term often used to refer to extremist groups like Al-Shabaab.
The Prime Minister’s statement underscores the government’s resolve to eradicate terrorism and restore stability across the nation.
This meeting likely reflects a strategic response to recent security incidents or intelligence indicating heightened risks, aiming to coordinate efforts among security agencies and line ministries to bolster counterterrorism operations.
