On Saturday, the top leaders of the Federal Government of Somalia, President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and Prime Minister Hamza Abdi Barre, announced their full support for Puntland State in its fight against the international terror group ISIS.
This declaration underscores the federal government’s commitment to combating terrorism and stabilizing the region.
Puntland, a semi-autonomous state in northeastern Somalia, has been actively engaged in efforts to counter the growing threat posed by ISIS affiliates in the area.
The federal government’s backing is likely to bolster Puntland’s operational capabilities and reinforce collaborative efforts to dismantle terrorist networks in Somalia.
