Last year, #Djibouti had supported #Somaliland against the #Puntland-supported #Dhulbahante clan. The latter, which fought to escape state repression and a possible #genocide, has since routed Somaliland’s army, founded the region of #SSCKhatumo and officially rejoined #Somalia.

The Somali response had initially been exceptionally firm and her position strong on all accounts. #Somaliland was uniquely weakened to begin with, including on account of #SSCKhatumo’s secession last August. The MoU also weakened #Awdal’s loyalty. All of #Somalia’s partners and major international organizations sided with Mogadiscio, including #Ethiopia’s all-weather partner #China. Ethiopia seemed to hesitate.

A stray #Houthi missile landed in #Somalia
Despite initial reports the object may have been an Ethiopian drone, authorities from #SSCKhatumo - the region that seceded from #Somaliland and reunited with Somalia last year - confirmed it was a Houthi missile. It made no casualties.

One way forward could be a dialogue with Mogadiscio, that seemed to have been miraculously restarted last year — two days before the Ethiopian MoU was inked. It nevertheless proved federal #Somalia was willing to go in that direction. Another clue is the lack of federal funding allocated to #SSC-#Khatumo so far. Whether memory of the #Ishaaq #genocide can be grappled with and relations normalized, within or outside of federal Somalia, is another issue entirely.

They follow in that the example of the #Dhulbahante, which managed to defeat #Somaliland’s army with the support of #Puntland last August, and were formally reunited as the 6th region of federal #Somalia in October (#SSC-#Khatumo).
