* Israel approves plan to withdraw troops from Gaza: report Israel is moving forward with plans to withdraw its troops from Gaza, following progress in prisoner exchange talks with Hamas, according to media reports. Haaretz newspaper reported that the military has approved several withdrawal strategies aimed at swiftly pulling soldiers out of the area. One of the options being considered includes using the Netzarim Corridor, which splits Gaza into two, as a potential exit route. * Houthis claim another attack on US aircraft carrier in Red Sea The Houthis in Yemen say they've launched another attack on the USS Harry Truman aircraft carrier in the Red Sea. Their military spokesperson, Yahya Saree, stated that missiles and drones were used to target the ship in the northern Red Sea. He explained that the attack aimed to push the carrier out of its operational area. * Sudan paramilitary leader says 'lost' key Al-Jazirah state capital The leader of Sudan's Rapid Support Forces, or the RSF, has admitted that his troops have lost control of Wad Madani, the capital of Al-Jazirah state, after an army offensive. In a message to the paramilitaries and the public, Mohamed Hamdan Daglo vowed to retake the city, a key hub in central Sudan. The RSF had held it since December 2023. Meanwhile, the army, which has been fighting the RSF since April, announced on Saturday that it had entered Wad Madani and was clearing out "remnants of the rebels". * Ethiopia, Somalia restore full diplomatic relations Ethiopia and Somalia have decided to fully restore their diplomatic ties, a move the two nations announced in a joint statement. The announcement came after a meeting between Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, where they discussed ways to strengthen their relationship and address shared priorities. Back in April 2024, Somalia expelled Ethiopia's ambassador and shut down its consulates in Hargeisa, following tensions over the Somaliland port deal. The dispute was eventually resolved with the Ankara Declaration, brokered by Türkiye. * Toxic smoke from LA wildfires poses health risk People in Los Angeles are being urged to stay indoors as dangerous wildfire smoke spreads across the area. Massive fires burning in and around the city have filled the air with toxic fumes, creating health risks for residents. Anish Mahajan from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health explained in a press conference that wildfire smoke contains a mix of fine particles, gases and water vapours. It's those small particles that can get into your nose and throat, causing sore throats and headaches, Mahajan said, advising caution for everyone—even those who are otherwise healthy.

In 1991, Somaliland declared independence from Somalia, but no country has yet to accept Somaliland's sovereignty. That, however, may soon change. On January 1st, Ethiopia and Somaliland entered into a memorandum of understanding that includes Somaliland leasing a coastline and port to landlocked Ethiopia, and in return, Ethiopia would be the first country in the world to formally recognize Somaliland's independence. When news of the MOU came to light earlier this year, it sent shockwaves throughout the Horn of Africa. Somaliland is in the north of Somalia, with a long coastline on the Gulf of Aden and bordering Ethiopia and Djibouti. It has many of the trappings of a state, including its own currency and governing institutions. It is a multiparty democracy and far more stable and less violent than Somalia. Somalia, however, still claims Somaliland—and every country in the world formally considers Somaliland to be part of Somalia. This move by Ethiopia threatens to upend this consensus of the last three decades. Joining me from Hargeisa, the capital of Somaliland, is Guleid Ahmed Jama, a lawyer and researcher. We kick off by discussing Somaliland's unique history before having a long conversation about this Ethiopia deal and what comes next.

“Especially the woman, they cannot sing. They cannot go in front of the people and then sing and say ‘I am an artist'. It's shameful.”Today Alan enjoys a treat on the podcast: singer and activist Sahra Halgan came in to the Africa Daily studios in Broadcasting House along with her fellow musicians percussionist, Aymeric Krol, and guitarist, Maël Salètes, and they performed some of their music live for him. Sahra has lived quite a life… She was a nurse during the Somali civil war in the 1980s before fleeing to France in the 1990s. But after years of building up her singing career abroad, she returned to her home city of Hargeisa in the self-declared republic of Somaliland in 2015 and founded its first cultural and music centre. The name of that club is Hiddo Dhawr - which means ‘promote or keep culture' – which is also the name of her latest album, out this month. Opening a club wasn't without challenges; there is disapproval of musicians – especially female ones – from many sectors of Somali society. And even at the age of 55, Sahra's mother is still hoping that one day she'll get a proper job!

Somaliland's campaign for recognition started more than three decades ago. Now, the self-governing region of Somalia expects to finalize a controversial deal that will make Ethiopia the first country to do so. The move comes despite strong objection from Mogadishu. Somaliland is just one of the numerous regions of Africa where people are striving for independence.

In this episode of The Horn, Alan is joined by Omar Mahmood, Crisis Group's Senior Analyst for Eastern Africa, to discuss the fallout of the Ethiopia-Somaliland Memorandum of Understanding for Somalia and the region. They talk about Hargeisa's motivations for the port deal with Addis Ababa and Mogadishu's response. They look at what deteriorating relations between Ethiopia and Somalia could mean for the offensive against Al Shabaab as well as regional stability generally. They examine the flurry of diplomacy by Somalia aimed at rallying opposition to the deal. They also discuss whether Ethiopia could make a pitch for greater sea access that would benefit both Somalia and Somaliland.For more in-depth analysis of the topics discussed in this episode, check out our Horn of Africa regional page.

South Africa is taking Israel to the ICJ in the Hague. Pretoria alleges that genocide is being committed against Palestinians during the Gaza conflict. So far more than 23,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israel's operation against Hamas militants.Are Ethiopians in Somalia and Somaliland now living in fear as tensions rise between Mogadishu and Hargeisa after a seaport access deal ? And the future of Artificial Intelligence in Africa.
L'Éthiopie et le Somaliland ont annoncé avoir trouvé un accord sur l'usage du port de Berbera. Le port commercial est sous la gestion de DP World depuis 2017. Le groupe a prévu d'investir 442 millions de dollars pour le corridor de Berbera afin de s'imposer comme une alternative à la traditionnelle route de Djibouti. Sur le terrain, de nombreux travaux ont été réalisés, témoigne le sénateur des Français de l'étranger, Olivier Cadic. Il s'est rendu sur place en juillet dernier. « Il y a un port tout neuf en eau profonde dont j'ai pu observer des travaux d'agrandissement. J'ai visité l'aéroport et il y a une piste d'atterrissage qui est la plus longue d'Afrique. Le nouveau terminal flambant neuf qui pourrait accueillir les avions-cargos. J'ai vu aussi la zone franche aussi toute neuve. J'ai pu circuler sur la toute nouvelle route qui relie la capitale Hargeisa au port de Berbera, voir un magnifique rond-point tout neuf, une sorte de rocade qui permet d'éviter le centre d'Hargeisa et de partir directement vers l'Éthiopie. Donc, on voit qu'il y a beaucoup de moyens qui ont été mis pour créer ce nouveau corridor. »L'ambition serait d'y voir circuler 500 camions par jour alors que la qualité de cette route de plus de 900 kilomètres est très inégale. Cependant, les activités au port de Berbera sont belles et bien lancées. « Sur les statistiques, en tout cas de 2022, il y avait environ 123 000 conteneurs qui avaient été manutentionnés, indiqueYann Alix, délégué général de la fondation Sefacil, spécialiste des questions portuaires africaines. Ça veut donc dire qu'il y a encore de la place, évidemment, ça veut aussi dire que malgré tout, Berbera réussit à attirer des lignes régulières, pas nécessairement toujours au détriment de Djibouti, mais en tout cas, ça crée une alternative. Et donc, pour DP World, qui vend un peu un modèle clé en main de construction d'un port et ensuite d'une zone économique spéciale où on peut implémenter de l'activité industrielle, de transformation et ensuite d'investir le corridor. Je ne sais pas si on peut parler de succès ou d'échec. En tout cas, c'est une vraie alternative portuaire qui est née. »À lire aussiL'Éthiopie s'explique sur l'accord avec le Somaliland et tente de calmer le jeuUne opportunité notamment pour les régions les plus enclavées du sud de l'Éthiopie. Éthiopie qui exporte des produits agricoles notamment pour plus de 4 milliards de dollars annuellement et qui par ailleurs importe hydrocarbures, de biens semi-finis et de consommation pour plus de 18 milliards. « J'y vois véritablement une saine concurrence entre deux corridors avec Djibouti qui a une très forte expérience et expertise vis-à-vis des chargeurs et des organisateurs de transport et les logisticiens éthiopiens. Mais ces derniers sont aussi motivés par la possibilité de pouvoir peut-être négocier aussi des temps de transit ou des taux de fret qui soient assez intéressants par le Somaliland via Berbera », note Yann Alix.Cependant, contrairement à Djibouti, les conditions tarifaires et douanières entre l'Éthiopie et le Somaliland sont encore peu favorables. À noter également qu'en 2018, l'Éthiopie avait déjà voulu prendre des parts dans le port de Berbera avant de voir l'initiative achopper.
C'est une déflagration dans la Corne de l'Afrique. L'Éthiopie et le Somaliland, une république sécessionniste de la Somalie depuis 1991, ont annoncé la signature d'un protocole d'accord. Le texte autorise Addis Abeba à louer une bande de terre de 20 km le long de la côte au Somaliland, garantissant son accès à la mer, tandis que Hargeisa affirme qu'Addis Abeba va reconnaître son indépendance. La Somalie n'a pas caché sa colère, rappelant son ambassadeur en Éthiopie. Décryptage avec Sonia Le Gouriellec, chercheuse, spécialiste de la région. RFI : Est-ce que la réaction de la Somalie vous surprend ?Sonia Le Gouriellec : Alors non, la réaction de Mogadiscio, finalement, était assez attendue. Elle est très ferme et je vous rappelle que la Somalie ne reconnaît pas le Somaliland comme un territoire indépendant. Mais, il y a déjà des contrats qui ont été signés, notamment en 2018, lorsque DP World, qui a dû quitter Djibouti suite à la nationalisation du port de Djibouti, s'est installé à Berbera et a signé un accord avec le Somaliland. Déjà, à l'époque, la Somalie avait déclaré que cet accord était nul et non avenu et avait fait des recours auprès de plusieurs organisations internationales, sans que ça n'ait beaucoup d'effets pour le moment.La Somalie vient de réagir, mais d'autres voisins pourraient aussi avoir leur mot à dire, non ?Djibouti pourrait à long terme s'inquiéter sur les retombées sur ses activités portuaires de ce nouveau concurrent, puisque 95% à 98% du fret éthiopien passe par Djibouti. Mais effectivement, les entreprises éthiopiennes se plaignent de tarifs portuaires trop élevés, des coûts trop importants des transports, donc Abiy Ahmed, qui voulait libéraliser son économie, avait montré l'importance d'un nouvel accès. J'imagine que l'Égypte va également réagir puisqu'elle voit arriver du coup en mer Rouge un nouveau concurrent, et il y a beaucoup de concurrence et de compétition entre l'Égypte et l'Éthiopie qui n'ont toujours pas trouvé d'accord sur le grand barrage sur le Nil bleu. Et l'Égypte a de plus en plus de navires en mer Rouge, donc voir arriver potentiellement une nouvelle puissance maritime, ça peut être inquiétant effectivement pour l'Égypte. Et se posent plein d'autres questions : qui va former la marine de l'Éthiopie ? Les forces navales auraient dû, normalement, être formées par la France - en tout cas, j'imagine que ça a été au cœur des discussions quand Abiy Ahmed et Macron se sont rencontrés en juin dernier.Donc cet accord semble lancer une nouvelle période de turbulences dans la Corne de l'Afrique, d'autant plus si, au final, l'Éthiopie reconnaît officiellement le Somaliland, c'est ça ?Tout à fait. Si on en sait un peu plus et que finalement, il y a une reconnaissance de l'indépendance du Somaliland, il y a des conséquences pour la Corne de l'Afrique qui sont énormes. Déjà, ça fait un État de plus dans la région. Je vous rappelle qu'en une vingtaine d'années, c'est une région qui a connu la reconnaissance de l'Érythrée, la reconnaissance du Soudan du Sud et là, on aurait un nouvel État. C'est vraiment un enjeu fort pour le Somaliland. Toute sa politique étrangère est basée sur cette demande de reconnaissance. Pour les États occidentaux, il est hors de question de faire du néo-colonialisme et de reconnaître cette indépendance. Pour l'Union africaine, les frontières sont intangibles et il n'est pas question de reconnaître ce pays. Donc c'était aux voisins de l'Éthiopie de le faire, et en particulier à la Somalie et au Somaliland de trouver un accord ensemble. Donc là, l'Éthiopie arrive « avec ses gros sabots ». Est-ce que c'est une provocation de la part d'Abiy Ahmed pour obtenir un accord de la Somalie, juste pour avoir cette présence sans reconnaissance derrière ? Est-ce que c'est un moyen pour Abiy Ahmed de focaliser l'attention des élites, de remobiliser sur le nationalisme éthiopien, sur les problèmes économiques, et donc comme une solution aux difficultés économiques ? C'est plus de questions que de réponses pour l'instant. Mais effectivement, ce serait un sacré tremblement de terre dans la Corne de l'Afrique.Pour autant, sur ce point précis de la reconnaissance, les Éthiopiens restent assez discrets on dirait…Pour l'instant, c'est surtout le Somaliland qui parle d'une reconnaissance. Du côté éthiopien, on a une déclaration plus prudente. Tous les autres voisins pensent plutôt que c'est une déflagration et que ça risque de créer du conflit. Dans un sens, même s'il n'y a pas de reconnaissance formelle, comme le disait mon collègue Alexandre Hory, la conclusion même d'un contrat est une forme de reconnaissance.Est-ce que c'est, selon vous, un accord gagnant-gagnant pour l'Éthiopie et le Somaliland, comme l'a dit l'ancien ambassadeur américain, Tibor Nagy ?C'est une solution économique que trouverait l'Éthiopie pour diversifier ses accès à la mer, ça répondrait aux attentes des entreprises éthiopiennes. Mais d'un point de vue politique, je ne pense pas que ce soit gagnant-gagnant pour tout le reste de la région, et tout simplement, aussi, pour le Somaliland. Au Somaliland, on se bat encore militairement pour l'indépendance du pays, mais pour certains groupes, pour rester aussi dans la République de Somalie.L'Éthiopie est prise dans une série de crises, à la fois intérieures mais aussi extérieures, avec l'Égypte ou encore le Soudan. On a l'impression qu'Abiy Ahmed joue un jeu dangereux avec cet accord, non ?Très certainement. Son positionnement sur la mer Rouge s'est avéré très agressif, puisque c'était devenu la revendication d'un droit historique, quelque chose d'existentiel d'avoir cet accès à la mer pour le développement du pays et en même temps, un appel à la coopération, à la complémentarité régionale, etc. Donc on est toujours dans une ambiguïté, d'autant que les relations avec l'Érythrée sont de nouveau tendues - les troupes érythréennes ne se sont pas retirées du Tigré. Les relations avec les groupes les plus nationalistes ont lancé un nouveau conflit. En région Oromo, vous avez également des conflits. Bref, l'Éthiopie est en train de véritablement d'exploser. On a une situation politique catastrophique, on a une situation humanitaire catastrophique, et ça rajoute beaucoup d'incertitudes également au niveau régional
Addis-Abeba et le Somaliland ont conclu, il y a deux jours, un accord-cadre : l'Éthiopie obtient l'accès à la mer, et en échange, elle s'engage à reconnaître cette république autoproclamée, région sécessionniste de la Somalie. Et cela ne passe pas du côté de Mogadiscio… au point que, raconte le Addis Standard, le pays « a rappelé son ambassadeur à Addis-Abeba (…) « pour consultations ». » Et puis il y a aussi eu une réunion d'urgence, et un communiqué condamnant cet accord… C'est en tout cas une surprise puisque Mogadiscio et le Somaliland « étaient convenus la semaine dernière de reprendre des négociations pour résoudre leurs différends, les premières depuis 2020 », rappelle VOA Afrique. Alors forcément, « la Somalie réagit vivement. »Il faut dire que pour les trois pays impliqués, cet accord touche à des valeurs fondamentales : le Somaliland, rappelle VOA, n'a « jamais [été] reconnu par la communauté internationale depuis qu'il a proclamé unilatéralement son indépendance de la Somalie en 1991. » Et à l'inverse, la Somalie considère la reconnaissance du Somaliland comme une violation de son intégrité territoriale.Un souhait de longue date de l'ÉthiopieCela faisait « des années », souligne VOA, que le pays « cherchait et revendiquait » un accès maritime – qui est « la ligne de vie du commerce national » estime le Reporter en Éthiopie. Au point que l'on a pu craindre ces dernières semaines des tensions armées, en raison notamment, rappelle le journal, « d'une série de déclarations litigieuses et conflictuelles du Premier ministre Abiy Ahmed. » Et même si celui-ci a depuis « déclaré qu'il était favorable à une résolution pacifique de la quête d'un port par l'Éthiopie, la controverse persiste. »Que le pays cherche un moyen de parvenir à ses fins n'est en tout cas pas une surprise puisque, comme le note le Addis Standard, les événements en ce sens se sont succédé : « en août l'an dernier, une délégation éthiopienne (…) s'est rendue à Hargeisa, la capitale du Somaliland, pour discuter d'options portuaires pour l'Éthiopie. » Puis, en novembre, le gouvernement a dévoilé « que l'Éthiopie négociait avec le gouvernement somalilandais pour obtenir un accès direct à un port maritime. » C'est donc maintenant chose faite.Profonde crise alimentaire en ÉthiopiePlus d'un an après la fin de la guerre civile, au Tigré, « 2 millions de personnes souffrent de malnutrition aigüe » apprend-on dans les colonnes du Monde Afrique… et la situation menace de s'étendre à la région voisine de l'Amhara. En cause : la sécheresse et le manque d'aide alimentaire. La région, « rocailleuse » et « habituée aux épisodes d'extrême aridité, » « a manqué la dernière saison des pluies. » Conclusion : « près de la moitié de la province n'a pas reçu de précipitations en été. »Maintenant, il faut attendre le prochain mois de juin pour espérer de l'eau… alors que la situation est déjà critique : le Addis Standard rapporte que, de source officielle, « rien qu'au mois de décembre, 400 personnes, dont 25 enfants, ont perdu la vie en raison de la famine » au Tigré – et en Amhara, ce sont 85.000 têtes de bétail qui ont succombé. « Près d'un million de personnes, réparties dans 43 districts de la région, sont au bord du précipice », alerte le journal.Une réaction gouvernementale en demi-teinteC'est en tout cas l'opinion de l'Addis Standard selon lequel « ni la réponse, ni le niveau d'inquiétude affiché par les autorités fédérales ne semblent correspondre à la rapide détérioration » de la situation alimentaire. Le Monde Afrique va même plus loin et juge que « le gouvernement fédéral (…) reste sourd [aux] appels au secours. » Plus encore, « les autorités éthiopiennes réfutent le terme » de famine, « accusant le Tigré de vouloir ‘politiser la crise'. »Pourtant, il y a urgence à reconnaître la gravité de la situation. « Échouer à le faire (…) va significativement entraver la réponse à la catastrophe. Des millions sont au bord de la mort. » Alors, le Addis Standard lance un ultime appel au gouvernement : « arrêtez de vous chamailler sur la sémantique, et déclarez l'urgence nationale (…) avant qu'il ne soit trop tard. »
Today on In The Sticks, I chat with dear friend, Akram (AK) Abdalla. Akram is a Somaliland local and is a key reason why my return to Hargeisa was so special. In this final episode of 2023, Akram tells me about his upbringing in Somaliland, whilst I compare it to mine in Australia.

At the end of May 1988, rebels from the Somali National Movement launched a series of lightening attacks on cities in northern Somalia - the area that today is the self-declared republic of Somaliland. The rebels were fighting against the military dictatorship of President Siad Barre. By the start of June, they had taken control of most of Hargeisa, the biggest city in the north. Government forces fell back to Hargeisa airport and other areas on the outskirts and were ordered to begin the indiscriminate bombardment of the city. At the time Ahmed Mohamed Hassan was a fighter pilot in the Somali air force. He now faced a choice: join other pilots in bombing the city or refuse and face the prospect of being shot. He's been talking to Rob Walker. (Photo: Ahmed Mohamed Hassan in 2023. Credit: Ahmed Mohamed Hassan)
On today's episode of In The Sticks, I chat with my younger brother, Raage Cabdi. Raage (or Timo Weyn) and I uncover how very quickly he became a renowned figure throughout the streets of Hargeisa.
Are you shocked and distressed about the way in which war and displacement is being represented, reported and talked about right now with the Russian invasion of Ukraine? Writers, journalists, activists, scholars, Bhakti Shringarpure, Nadifa Mohamed, Suchitra Vijayan and Billy Kahora think through this difficult topic. Recorded on March 25, 2022, they intervene in the moral and political crisis around the writing, reporting, representing and filming of war and all the extraordinary violence, plunder and displacement it perpetuates. Bhakti Shringarpure is a writer and educator who co-founded and edited Warscapes magazine for ten years before it transitioned into the Radical Books Collective. Her book Cold War Assemblages: Decolonization to Digital looks at the ways in which the Cold War thwarted decolonization movements in colonized regions and used soft power to shape their literary cultures. Nadifa Mohamed is an award-winning Somali-British writer. She has published three novels and they all center historical research to retell stories of war, violence and justice through fiction. Her novel The Orchard of Souls is about three women trapped in Hargeisa as it sinks into war in the eighties. She was nominated for the Booker Prize for her novel, The Fortune Men that is based on the true story of Mahmood Mattan, a Somali sailor who was wrongfully executed in the UK in 1952 for a crime he didn't commit. Suchitra Vijayan is a writer, photographer and activist. She is the founder and Executive Director of The Polis Project. For her book, The Midnight's Border: A People's History of India, Suchitra traveled across the 9000-mile Indian border. A barrister by training, she previously worked for the United Nations war crimes tribunals in Yugoslavia and Rwanda before co-founding the Resettlement Legal Aid Project in Cairo, which gives legal aid to Iraqi refugees. Billy Kahora is a writer and journalist from Kenya and now based in the UK. He was Managing Editor of the Kwani Trust and has edited several issues of Kwani and a sci-fi anthology titled Imagine 500 with Malawiian writers. His stories have been shortlisted for the Caine Prize For African Literature. He is the author of The Cape Cod Bicycle War And Other Stories and was a screenwriter for the films Soul Boy and Nairobi Half Life.
On the 1st of April last year a massive fire swept through the huge Waheen Market in Hargeisa. It was the beating heart of the city - the capital of the unrecognised Republic of Somaliland - and played a role in the lives of hundreds of thousands of people there and across the region. It burned for more than 24 hours - completely destroying thousands of businesses. So how has the city recovered – as well as individual traders? Alan Kasujja (@kasujja) reports for Africa Daily.

Mahmood Mattan was born in 1923 and was a young man when he left his home in Hargeisa, in what later became Somaliland, to live in Cardiff in Wales. He settled in a community called Tiger Bay, worked as a seaman, got married and had three children. In 1952 he was accused of murdering Lily Volpert, a local businesswoman. He was found guilty and executed by hanging in prison. For years Mahmood Mattan's family maintained his innocence and his conviction was quashed in 1998. Last week, 70 years after Mahmood Mattan's execution, South Wales police apologised and admitted the prosecution was "flawed". In today's Africa Daily, Victoria Uwonkunda has been finding out more about the life and death of Mahmood Mattan from Danielle Fahiya, the presenter/producer of a new BBC podcast called Mattan: Injustice of a Hanged Man.
Dr. Abdirahman Duale Beileh is a Somali economist, professor, politician, philanthropist, poet, and well acclaimed song writer. In August 2022, Dr. Beileh finished his term as Somalia's Minister of Finance, having served for the past five years. Previously, he was Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation from 2014 to 2015. Dr. Beileh has been a driving force behind the reestablishment of the Somali state, and the country's return to the international scene. We start our conversation with memories from Dr. Beileh's childhood home outside the city of Hargeisa. An opportunity to study and work abroad in the United Arab Emirates and the United States drove him to question the situation in his native Somalia, eventually leading him to pursue a 30-year career at the African Development Bank (AfDB). We then discuss Somalia's transition from a failed state to one where elections and a peaceful transition of power recently took place. We explore what went right and the remaining challenges for the future. Dr. Beileh shares his experience of working with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank, and other partners on issues such as debt relief and the process of building from scratch an international coalition to support Somalia. He passionately talks about the challenges of instilling a “tax-payer mentality” in a country where most people only experience of taxation as extortion by the violent extremist group Al-Shabaab, as well as the urgent need to finance the security sector. He further shares his experience of collaborating with the finance ministers of Somalia's Federal Member States (FMS) and outlines his approach to building trust with citizens, federal member state governments, and international partners. And his toolkit is wide-ranging, from transparent communication to music and poetry. Finally, Dr. Beileh sets out a compelling 10-year vision for a Somalia: a country that is self-sufficient in food production, where the link between floods and famine is broken through good governance, and where young people can earn a quality education and pursue their dreams.

S3EP4. This episode features Guleid whom I originally met in Hargeisa in 2015. He is now living in Italy and shares a bit about his journey from Hargeisa to Italy. He told me back then he wanted to go to Europe and I never imagined we'd be having this conversation all these years later. In this episode he shares his journey, his reflections and some advice. I am so glad he decided to share his story and hope you all benefit from this episode.

Welcome back another week, Firstly Ramadan Mubarak to you all! This week we dive straight into the Hot topic of the week being the Chris Rock and Will Smith altercation at the Grammys, and our thoughts on Jada and Will Smiths marriage/drama.

Jaridani Jumanne, Aprili 12, 2022- -Mashirika ya Umoja wa Mataifa yameonya kuwa janga lingine la njaa kama la mwaka 2011 linanyemelea Somalia iwapo wahisani hawataongeza ufadhili wao kwa ombi la usaidizi wa kibinadamu kwa taifa hilo la pembe ya Afrika kwa kuwa ukame wa muda mrefu sambamba na ongezeko la bei za vyakula vimeongeza idadi ya wasio na uhakika wa chakula kufikia watu milioni 6, sawa na asilimia 40 ya wananchi wote. -Katika kukabiliana na uharibifu uliosababishwa na moto katika soko huko Hargeisa, Somaliland. Umoja wa Mataifa umetuma timu ya wataalam wa kiufundi kufanya kazi na serikali ili kutathmini uharibifu na kusaidia ujenzi wa soko jipya. -Sekta ya nguo inachangia kati ya asilimia 2 na 8 ya gesi chafuzi duniani. Uzalishaji wa kilo moja ya vitambaa unatumia zaidi ya nusu kilo ya kemikali na hutumia maji safi mengi. Duniani kote dola bilioni 460 hupotea kila mwaka kwa ajili ya utupaji wa nguo ambazo bado zinaweza kuvaliwa. Kwenye makala-mkoani Tabora ambako wakulima wanasema wameamua kuhamia katika kilimo cha mazao ya muda mfupi kutokana na ukame walioushuhudia katika siku za hivi karibuni japo pia bado wanakumbana na changamoto nyingine za pembejeo. Mashinanini tupo Uganda katika wilaya ya Adjumani ambako takribani wasichana wanafunzi 500 waliolewa na wengine kupata ujauzito katika kipindi cha miaka miwili ambapo shule zilikuwa zimefungwa ili kuudhibiti ugonjwa wa Covid-19. Lakini Shirika la Umoja wa mataifa la kuhudumia watoto, UNICEF kwa kushirikiana na serikali ya Uganda na wadau, hawakuwatelekeza watoto hawa kama anavyoeleza Dkt. Sammy Poro ambaye ni Mtaalamu wa Maendeleo ya vijana balehe katika ofisi ya UNICEF mjini Gulu kaskazini mwa Uganda.
Katika kukabiliana na uharibifu uliosababishwa na moto katika soko huko Hargeisa, Somaliland nchini Somalia, Umoja wa Mataifa umetuma timu ya wataalam wa kiufundi kufanya kazi na serikali ili kutathmini uharibifu na kusaidia ujenzi wa soko jipya.
Buckle up for this one! World Concern President, Nick Archer, takes us on a journey to the distant and mystifying land of Somalia. Step off a small plane into an abandoned airport in Hargeisa in 1991. Take in the vast, arid desert surrounding you, as you walk the path of hardship so many Somalis have traveled for centuries.

Naibu mwakilishi maalum wa Umoja wa Mataifa na mratibu wa masuala ya kibinadamu nchini Somalia, Adam Abdelmoula, ametoa wito kwa jumuiya ya kimataifa kuzisaidia haraka jamii zilizoathirika vibaya na ukame baada ya kukamilisha ziara ya siku mbili katika maeneo yaliiyoathika zaidi Somaliland. Flora Nducha na taarifa zaidi (TAARIFA YA FLORA NDUCHA) Nattss…. Katika mji wa Cunaqabad nje kidogo ya mji mkuu wa Somaliland Hargeisa, bwana Abdelmoula anawasili na timu yake ya Umoja wa Mataifa kushuhudia hali halisi ya ukame na athari zake kwa jamii hii na kuzungumza na waathirika. Kwa hakika hali ni mbaya dhahiri shairi na baada ya kuzungumza na wafanyakazi wa misaada wa Umoja wa Msataifa ambao wanajitahidi kukimu mahitaji ya haraka ya watu hawa ikiwemo chakula na pia waathirika ambao wengi ni wakimbizi wa ndani, amebaini kuwa kuna ongezeko kubwa la watu waliotawanywa kutoka maeneo mengine yaliyoathirika na ukame ambao wamefika hapa Somaliland kusaka hifadhi, hali ambayo amesema inaongeza shinikizo kwa rasilimali chache zilizopo kwa jamii akisisitiza kuwa “ kuna haja ya kuongeza uwekezaji katika suluhu ya kudumu kwenye maeneo yaliyoathirika na ukame , kwani hali hii inaongeza shinikizo na ni muhimu kuboresha ufikishaji wa huduma za kijamii katika maeneo yanayohifadhi wakimbizi wa ndani.” Akihitimisha ziara hiyo ya siku mbili Adam Abdelmoula ameisihi jumuiya ya kimataifa kunyoosha mkono kusaidia kwa hali na mali “ Tunachohitaji kufanya ni kuwekeza zaidi katika maeneo ya asili ya watu wa jamii hizi zilizotawanywa ili kuhakikisha wanaweza kusalia makwao kwa usalama na wakati huohuo kuboresha huduma za kijamii kwenye maeneo amnbayo yameshuhudia idadi kubwa ya watu wakiwasili kwa sababu ya ukame.” Kwa mwaka huu wa 2022 mipango ya kibinadamu nchini Somalia inahitaji dola bilioni 1.5 ili kuwasaidia watu milioni 5.5 walio hatarini wakiwemo milioni 1.6 wakimbizi wa ndani, milioni 3.9 ambao sio wakimbizi na watu wenye ulemavu.

He is a father, chancer, some-time petty thief. He is many things, in fact, but he is not a murderer. So when a shopkeeper is brutally killed and all eyes fall on him, Mahmood isn't too worried. It is true that he has been getting into trouble more often since his Welsh wife Laura left him. But Mahmood is secure in his innocence in a country where, he thinks, justice is served. It is only in the run-up to the trial, as the prospect of freedom dwindles, that it will dawn on Mahmood that he is in a terrifying fight for his life - against conspiracy, prejudice and the inhumanity of the state. And, under the shadow of the hangman's noose, he begins to realise that the truth may not be enough to save him.*Nadifa Mohamed was born in Hargeisa, Somaliland, in 1981 and moved to Britain at the age of four.

"During the race, to be honest, I don't wear a watch. Rule number one. I don't run for time. I just get to the front and hang on as long as I can."Our guest this week is Abdi Abdirahman, 5-time US Olympian at 10,000 meters and the marathon.I've known Abdi for about fifteen years now. If you know anything about this living legend in the sport of running it's that he brings joy wherever he goes. There's never a dull moment when he's around. Just ask any of his peers. In fact, you can find out for yourself when you read his new book, Abdi's World. Throughout his book are anecdotes from some of the best runners from the past few decades. They all share the common theme of how calm, cool and fun Abdi is, no matter what. This may be the secret to his twenty plus years of success as a long distance runner for the US. Bryan and I got to interview him on the Go Be More podcast in July of 2020. He shared so much wisdom from his journey with us in that interview. Today, we get to bring things full circle as we dive into his experience running the marathon at the Tokyo Olympics and some of the lessons he shares in his new book. Abdi's been competing at the highest level of running and we want to give you insight into how he's done it. Who knows. Maybe his approach will be the key to helping you reach your own goals.Timestamped Show Notes(2:57) Giving credit to Tokyo, the first Olympic venue since Covid…(8:00) Prepping through the pandemic and working through an injury…(9:29) A weight challenge…(12:08) “I'm still, you know, a work in progress.

Pour SessionLab, Hortense Volle a rencontré à Toulouse, quelques heures avant son concert au festival Rio Loco, la chanteuse originaire du Somaliland, Sahra Halgan. Uneconversation les pieds dans l'herbe, en toute intimité et en audio 3D. Un podcast original à écouter au casque. La bien nommée Sahra Halgan, Sahra, "la combattante" en somali, est la voix d'un pays fantôme. Un pays de 4 millions d'âmes situé aux confins de la Corne de l'Afrique : le Somaliland. Autoproclamé indépendant en mai 1991, il tente depuis 30 ans d'être reconnu comme un État souverain, en vain. La communauté internationale le considère toujours comme partie intégrante de la Somalie. C'est dans les années 1980, alors qu'elle n'a même pas 20 ans que les chansons de Sahra gagnent à jamais le cœur de tout un peuple. Improvisée infirmière sur le front du conflit somalien, elle chante pour soigner les blessés et encourager les combattants. Les luttes fratricides qui marquent la fin de la guerre la contraignent à l'exil et c'est la France qui, en 1992, lui accordera l'asile politique. Après avoir vécu plus de 20 ans en région lyonnaise et créé le "Sahra Halgan Trio", celle qui est restée un emblème de résistance pour la diaspora retourne vivre au Somaliland. Depuis sa ville natale, Hargeisa, la capitale, elle continue à se battre pour reconnaissance de son pays avec son chant pour seule arme. Portée par l'énergie rock du trio lyonnais qui l'accompagne, Sahra Halgan n'a en effet qu'une seule ambition : placer son pays sur la carte du monde. Caractéristique des territoires d'Afrique de l'Est où se mêlent des influences du Moyen-Orient et d'Afrique, sa voix surprend par sa souplesse, son timbre et son originalité, combinant voix de gorge et ornementations orientales. S'adressant autant aux dancefloors qu'aux consciences, son dernier album, Waa Dardaaran, mixe compositions originales, morceaux traditionnels et chansons issues de l'âge d'or des scènes somaliennes. Un podcast tourné à Toulouse en juin 2021 au festival Rio Loco, réalisé avec le concours de la sonothèque de RFI et agrémenté de reportages de France24. Facebook Titres diffusés dans le podcast : Extraits de l'album Waa Dardaaran (Buda Musique, 2019) : Kiidhaba, Hiddo, Xarago, Talo, Durdur, Massalo, Alaah. Extraits de l'album Faransiskiyo Somaliland (2015) : Naftaydaay Raali Noqo, Alah Inu Ku Dhawro, Somaliland Pendant notre conversation, Sahra Halgan a évoqué… Le documentaire Sahra Halgan returns to Somaliland (52') écrit avec Aymeric Krol et réalisé par Cris Ubermann. Ce film revient sur le parcours de Sahra pendant le conflit contre le régime somalien du dictateur Siad Barré, depuis Hargeisa, capitale du Somaliland, jusqu'à Berbera puis Buruo, autres villes symboliques de la résistance et du SNM, le mouvement national de libération du Somaliland dont elle est devenue une figure emblématique.

You've heard about Somalia. But what about Somaliland, a self-declared sovereign state which broke away and declared its independence thirty years ago? Often labeled as the MOTHER OF SOMALILAND, Today's guest is a living legend who's left an indelible mark on her home country. After growing up in British Somaliland at a time when girls weren't educated, Edna Adan Ismail trained to become her country's first qualified nurse-midwife. But she didn't stop there - Edna went on to open a maternity hospital in Hargeisa, the capital of Somaliland, where she works to combat the country's high rates of maternal and infant mortality. As if that weren't enough, Edna also served as the only female minister in the Somaliland government, advocating fearlessly for women and children. She's made it her life's goal to put an end to female genital mutilation, which over 99% of women aged 15-49 in Somalia and Somaliland undergo. There's no end to the list of achievements this woman has completed against all odds. In our conversation, she shares everything from her father's words that inspired her career, why she chose to sleep in a construction site while her hospital was being built, and what makes Somaliland such a uniquely beautiful country. I hope you enjoy.

The self-declared country of Somaliland remains largely unrecognized by the rest of the world.But that hasn’t stopped its estimated 3.6 million people from celebrating its 30 years of independence.In Somaliland’s capital, Hargeisa, the crowded streets witnessed patriotic music blaring from honking cars.Videos on social media showed young people draped in green, red, and white — the colors of the national flag."[Young people] were born in Somaliland. They know only Somaliland, and they consider Somaliland [to be] their identity."Dr. Jama Musse Jama, director, Hargeisa Cultural Center“These young people have no clue, idea what the identity was before Somaliland. They were born in Somaliland. They know only Somaliland, and they consider Somaliland [to be] their identity,” said Dr. Jama Musse Jama, director of the Hargeisa Cultural Center. Related: Somali torture victim will face his abuser after 31 years — in US courtUnlike Somaliland youth, 54-year-old Jama remembers the days before Somaliland’s independence.He was born in Somalia — which was a union of the Italian and British colonial protectorates that joined together after independence in 1960.But that union didn’t work out, and after years of political conflict, Somaliland decided to declare itself an independent state in 1991.Jama said he’s proud of what Somaliland has achieved over the past 30 years — and said Hargyesa has reemerged as a cultural center in the region.“Wow. At the age of 30. The power of that age is what Somalilanders are feeling,” he said.Related: Somali Americans share in the grief and pain over George Floyd’s killing“But also, it’s a kind of disappointment with the entire world," which has yet to officially recognize the country.Despite functioning as a de facto state with its own passports and constitution, Somaliland remains unrecognized by the African Union, United Nations and most countries, including the United States.Still — Somaliland has increasingly sought to establish diplomatic, political and business relationships with countries like Taiwan, the United Arab Emirates and Kenya."We've had many political and diplomatic relationships with many countries around the world,” said Ismail Shirwac, a diplomat at the Somaliland mission in Nairobi, Kenya.“We’ve been practicing our values even without having international recognition.”Ismail Shirwac, diplomat, Somaliland mission, Nairobi, Kenya“We’ve been practicing our values even without having international recognition,” he added.Related: US-based Somali Bantu face deportation to a country they've never knownIndeed, while not perfect, Somaliland has cultivated a reputation for being more stable and more democratic than its neighbor Somalia."We've proven we are an island of hope in an ocean of unrest and autocracy,” said Shirwac.The country has held multiple, open democratic elections and had successful transfers of power.On May 31, the country will hold local elections, in stark contrast to Somalia, where failure to hold elections nearly split the capital apart.Previous attempts for dialogue between Somaliland and Somalia have failed, due to disagreement about Somaliland sovereignty. Related: Despite recent historic gains in ending FGM, Somalia sees dramatic increaseShirwac says one thing is clearly off the table."Every Somalilander tells you that the people of the republic of Somaliland have no intention of reuniting with Somalia.”Ismail Shirwac, diplomat, Somaliland mission, Nairobi, Kenya"Every Somalilander tells you that the people of the republic of Somaliland have no intention of reuniting with Somalia,” he said.While he’s hopeful that the international community will recognize Somaliland soon, he said, regardless, the country will continue on its path of democracy and independence.“Somaliland is here to stay,” he said.

In January 1991, the Somali state collapsed into civil war after the fall of President Mohamed Siad Barre. For those living in what used to be British Somaliland, the violence began in 1988, when government forces bombed Hargeisa. Thousands fled to neighbouring Ethiopia, including Ismail Einashe, then a young boy, now a contributor to BBC Africa's Letter from Africa. He reflects on his memories of that time, and Hartisheik refugee camp, to which he returned in 2019. David Amanor has left the building!

In May 1991 Somaliland a country that is located in the North eastern part of Somalia seceded as a self-declared state from Somalia. However, it is yet to gain international recognition from the United Nations. Somaliland faced civil war under the Somali president Siad Barre whose aim was to unite the greater Somalia. During the war, 95 % of the infrastructure and institutions were destroyed. Many people who had previously worked as doctors were killed while the few remaining ones either emigrated to western countries or were displaced. Edna Adan Ismail, former first lady and a former senior diplomat who had worked for the World Health Organisation for 32 years and studied in London South Bank University, embarked on a journey in 1993 to construct the first maternity hospital in the capital city Hargeisa, Somaliland. Maternal and infant deaths had been a major health concern to the government of Somaliland but there was no single maternity center. According to UNICEF, at the time, close to 60 percent of women gave birth at home in Somaliland with the help of traditional midwives. As a result, child mortality was very high as every 7th child perished before their fifth birthday. Women’s healthcare was also affected by the drought, lack of food, lack of safe drinking water and scarcity of proper sanitary services and general health services. To begin with, Edna started constructing a hospital which was completed in 2002. Construction work took long – four years- because of the lack of human labor and skills. Incredibly, the first baby was born within 10 hours of the hospital’s opening. Today, the hospital has been successful in facilitating the delivery of more than 12000 babies. However, having a fully equipped medical hospital required medical personnel. As such, the next step for Edna Adan Ismael was to have a training centre where she could train young women who could run the hospital. The hospital became an academic medical centre where skills, knowledge and competency for nurses and midwives were taught. She trained more than 1000 nurses and midwives. Her students knew what they were doing as far as patient care was concerned. They cared with compassion and treated while upholding the dignity for patients. Her greatest passion was to multiply the number of doctors, nurses and midwives. As a result, her efforts produced practitioners capable of giving back to societies across Somaliland. Most women who visited the hospital were referred because of pregnancy-related complications. However, the hospital also assisted members of the society who had other medical conditions. The site that was once a garbage dump had been transformed into a successful hospital that could perform procedures on highly complex cases affecting children. Somaliland still has the highest maternal mortality rate in the world but among the 12000 babies delivered successfully, the hospital had been able to reduce the maternal mortality to a quarter of the national average. The achievement was brought about by the emergency preparedness that the hospital takes pride in having doctors and nurses who are on stand by to treat any emergencies. Successful leadership requires tireless work to meet the needs of the society during a crisis. Edna and her society emerged in a crisis situation to bring her expertise forward to improve reproductive health in her community and reduce infant and maternal mortality. Edna set an inspiring example by choosing to use her pension to establish a hospital and make a difference in the society, that is a challenge to us all to play our roles in changing society. Edna Ismael is a leaving proof that says where there is a will there is a way.

Éste es el episodio 90 de 3 Cosas Que Ayer No Sabía, el del jueves 16 de enero de 2020. 01. Día Internacional de la croqueta Hoy, 16 de enero, es el “Día Internacional de la Croqueta”. Algunos datos curiosos: al año cada español consume una media de 80 croquetas de 25 gramos. La de jamón ibérico son las que más éxito tienen y se consumen preferentemente en verano, según la web croquetasricas.com 02. Ok Google Un estudio realizado a dueños de altavoces inteligentes de Estados Unidos ha revelado que de las mujeres encuestadas un 62% era más propensa a pedir las cosas por favor; frente a solamente el 45% de los hombres: https://www.europapress.es/portaltic/sector/noticia-mujeres-son-mas-propensas-pedir-favor-comando-voz-hombres-20191122172105.html Algunos expertos apuntaba al hecho de que acostumbrarnos a pedir las cosas a los asistentes de voz sin tener en cuenta las mínimas normas de cortesía, nos puede hacer menos educados cuando tratamos a otras personas y, sobre todo, inciden en la influencia que esto tiene en los peques. 03.

"For the little girl that didn't know a word of English or French, then to graduate in University with both official languages, I felt victorious." -Rahma Mohamed Literature has always been a passion of Rahma's. Having to forego pursuing her college studies in literature to satisfy her immigrant parents' need for security in choosing a career, Rahma found her way back to her passion unexpectedly. Having never read a children's book herself, Rahma became fascinated with the value and legacy in nurturing and sharing this childhood experience with her own children. As she tried to create this experience with her children, she realized the scarcity of diversity and representation in children's literature. Because of the lack of diversity in the market for Muslim Children’s Book, she decided to self-publish children’s books to encourage kids to be proud of their uniqueness, spread awareness, and celebrate diversity. Join us in this episode as we talk about diversity in literature, storybooks and parenting with Rahma Mohamed, a children’s storybook author. In this Episode, We Talk About: Rahma’s early school and career experience What made Rahma walk the path of being a Children’s Storybook Author What it feels like to be the only child of color in your class How to raise your child so that they have self-confidence within themselves Why literature representation for people of color is important The role of diversity in literature Where to reach Rahma Mohamed: Instagram Rahma Rodaah Rahma Mohamed's Bio: Rahma Mohamed was born and raised in Hargeisa, Somalia. At the age of eight, her family immigrated to Quebec, Canada where she attended her first formal school in French. She mastered both French and English and became the first to graduate from University in her family. She didn’t learn to read until she was at the age of ten. When she learned to read, a new world opened up to her. And she read all kinds of stories. But sadly, she never found herself in any of them. Once she became a mother, she set out to self-publish children’s books to encourage youth to be proud of their uniqueness by celebrating diversity. Fueled by her struggles and life experience, she became determined to offer books centered on characters that are Muslim and with African roots. She firmly believes that children need to be able to identify themselves in the book they read to enhance their self-confidence as well as bolster their sense of pride. She writes under the pen name Rahma Rodaah which is her first name and middle name combined.

Edna Adan Ismail is a healthcare pioneer in Somaliland. She was married to the former Prime Minister, but her first love was nursing and midwifery and she refused to give it up. For many years Edna fought to build a hospital in her home city of Hargeisa, and through sheer force of will and a lot of donated cement, finally managed it in 2002. She's now in her 80s, but still works 14 hour days teaching doctors and delivering babies.

Ett närgånget mammaporträtt, dofter av Somalia, journalistik och politik, glädjen i research och motståndet mot att skriva - möt författarna Jenny Nordberg, Erik Wijk och Nadifa Mohamed. Att författaren Erik Wijk överhuvudtaget finns till är lite av ett mirakel, och som barn levde han många år i tron att han var den nye Jesus. Av sin mamma var han sannerligen utvald. Nu kommer Erik Wijks bok om mamma Ulla Wijk, om en stark och komplicerad kärlek. Bara de riktiga orden, heter den. Författaren Nadifa Mohameds mormor är hennes nyckel till de tidiga barndomsåren i Hargeisa, Somalia. Idag bor Nadifa i London, men skriver om Somalia. Om hur inbördeskriget präglat landet och människorna, om allt som gått förlorat. Förlorade själar heter hennes roman som kommer på svenska. Vår reporter Irma Norrman har träffat Nadifa Mohamed i London. Att inte svika ett förtroende. Det är vad skrivandet och journalistiken ytterst handlar om, menar författaren Jenny Nordberg. Hör henne om hennes nya bok De förklädda flickorna i Kabul, och varför det är så roligt med research men så besvärligt med själva skrivandet.
It's twenty years since Somaliland declared itself independent but it still remains unrecognised as a nation state. For Assignment, Mary Harper reports from Hargeisa, the capital, where she finds many people happy to be going it alone.
Ifrah Kirih var nio år då hennes pappa gav efter och lät sin dotter könsstympas. Han ville egentligen inte tillåta det men Ifrah blev mobbad för att hon inte blivit omskuren som sina kompisar. Det var i Hargeisa, Somalilands största stad. När hon kom till Sverige gifte hon sig och hennes underliv sprättades upp. Men besvären i underlivet slutade inte. Som hundra miljontals andra kvinnor bär hon på sin egen historia om könsstympning, som det är fortfarande tabu att prata om.
