Puntland Defence Forces discovered over 300 passports, 600 identification documents, and foreign currencies belonging to foreign terrorists in hideouts abandoned by Daesh militants. Garowe (PP News Desk) — As Puntland State’s counterterrorism operations against Daesh (ISIS) enter their fourth month, several countries have approached the government of Puntland State to share the intelligence cache captured during the operations. In hideouts abandoned by Daesh terrorists, Puntland Defence Forces seized more than 300 passports, 600 identification documents and foreign currencies belonging to foreign terrorists. A substantial number of these documents were issued in Western countries. It is unclear whether Daesh terrorists stole these documents or whether they belonged to Daesh members. President Said Abdullahi Deni of Puntland State has been urged by security experts to put in place protocols for handling these documents and other intelligence that might be of interest to Western countries. Several Western intelligence agencies are putting effort into gaining access to these documents to determine the extent of possible homegrown terrorist threats. “The Puntland State government should resist the temptation to keep the public and Puntland stakeholders in the dark about how it handles key intelligence information related to Daesh” a member of the Kaah party told Puntland Post. “It would be hugely embarrassing for any major country that issued passports to Daesh terrorists who were planning to deploy more than ten thousand terrorists under the guise of refugees or visitors to the Calmiskaad mountain range in Somalia” a counterterrorism expert said. There is concern, in the United States, that the Trump administration could weaponise any information related to Daesh terrorists holding American passports, particularly if the passports were not reported as lost or if the passport holders were not under surveillance by the FBI before travelling to Somalia. © Puntland Post, 2025 The post Western Nations Seek Access to Captured Daesh Documents in Puntland State of Somalia appeared first on Puntland Post.

South Sudan’s First Vice President Riek Machar, the long-time rival to President Salva Kiir, was arrested on Wednesday — a move described by the UN as leaving the country on the brink of widespread conflict. FILE – South Sudan’s President Salva Kiir, right, and Vice President Riek Machar, left, attend a Holy Mass led by Pope Francis at the John Garang Mausoleum in Juba, South Sudan . AP A convoy of 20 heavily armed vehicles entered Machar’s residence in the capital Juba and arrested him, according to a statement issued by a member of his party, in a dramatic escalation of a conflict that has been building for weeks in the world’s youngest country. A power-sharing deal between Kiir and Machar has been gradually unravelling, threatening a return of the five-year civil war that killed around 400,000 people between 2013 and 2018. “We strongly condemn the unconstitutional actions taken today by the Minister of Defense and the Chief of National Security, who, alongside more than 20 heavily armed vehicles, forcefully entered the residence of the First Vice President,” said the statement, which was shared on Facebook by Reath Muoch Tang, his party’s foreign relations committee chairman. “His bodyguards were disarmed, and an arrest warrant was delivered to him under unclear charges. Attempts are currently being made to relocate him,” it added. The United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) said Thursday the reported arrest left the country on a precipice. “Tonight, the country’s leaders stand on the brink of relapsing into widespread conflict,” UNMISS head Nicholas Haysom said in a statement. Breaches of the 2018 peace deal “will not only devastate South Sudan but also affect the entire region,” he added. South Sudan — which declared independence from Sudan in 2011 — has remained plagued by poverty and insecurity since the peace deal. Analysts say an ageing Kiir, 73, has been seeking to ensure his succession and sideline Machar politically for months through cabinet reshuffles. More than 20 of Machar’s political and military allies in the unity government and army have also been arrested since February, many held incommunicado. There have been violent clashes between forces loyal to the two rivals, most notably in the northeastern Nasir County of Upper Nile State. Machar’s party says a military base and two military training centres around Juba have been attacked by government forces since Monday. A spokesman for Machar’s military wing, the Sudan People’s Liberation Army In Opposition (SPLA-IO), on Wednesday condemned the attacks as “terrorism” in a post on Facebook, and urged the international community to act. The training centres were established to prepare opposition forces for integration into the unified army, a key provision of the 2018 peace agreement aimed at uniting government and opposition troops. None of the incidents have been confirmed by the Kiir-aligned army, the South Sudan People’s Defence Forces (SSPDF), though it accused Machar’s forces of aggressive manoeuvres from one of the bases on Monday. Many in Juba are unsettled by the latest clashes and political tensions. “I am so worried about the situation. I feel like we are going back to war while we still need peace,” Lilian Sukeji told AFP. “Our leaders need to embrace dialogue rather than guns,” she said. ‘Red warning’ Prior to Machar’s arrest, Kiir said he reaffirmed his “unwavering commitment to restoring peace” following a meeting with church leaders. But it follows weeks of violent clashes, particularly in Nasir County, where government forces loyal to the president have battled the so-called White Army, a militia with ties to Machar. “The violence that started in March in Nasir seems to be spreading across a number of states in South Sudan,” warned International Crisis Group’s South Sudan senior analyst Daniel Akech. He said the refusal of Kiir and Machar to engage in dialogue — despite pressure from the international community — was a “red warning”. If wider conflict did break out, he said, “it will be a very decentralised kind of violence, which would be very difficult to stop” as it could quickly escape the two leaders’ control. International observers have expressed increasing concerns, with Norway and Germany closing their embassies in Juba. The British and US embassies in Juba announced they were reducing to minimal staffing, and urged citizens to leave the country.

Shiinaha ayaa si xowli ah ugu dhaqaaqaya qorshe uu kula wareegayo saameynta dhaqaale iyo gargaarka bani’aadamnimo ee uu horey u maamulayay Mareykanka, gaar ahaan mashaariicdii ay fulin jirtay hay’adda USAID. Warbaahinta Bloomberg ayaa sheegtay in Shiinaha uu hadda bixinayo adeegyo iyo maalgelin cusub oo uu ku beddelayo kaalintii Mareykanka, taasoo sii xoojinaysa saameyntiisa caalamiga ah. Si gaar ah, Shiinaha wuxuu diiradda saarayaa dalalka Aasiya, halkaasoo uu ku maalgelinayo barnaamijyadii USAID ee uu maamulka madaxweynihii hore Donald Trump hakiyay. Hay’adda gargaarka caalamiga ah ee Shiinaha, oo loo yaqaan CIDCA (China International Development Cooperation Agency), ayaa si rasmi ah loogu wargeliyay dalalka ay saameeyeen isbeddelkan, taasoo muujinaysa in Shiinuhu uu si dhab ah u doonayo inuu buuxiyo booskii USAID ee gobolka. Talaabadan waxay ka tarjumaysaa istiraatiijiyadda ballaaran ee Beijing ee ah inay si tartiib tartiib ah u xoojiso saamaynteeda caalamiga ah, iyadoo adeegsanaysa maalgelin iyo mashaariic horumarineed, gaar ahaan dalalka u nugul saameynta dhaqaale. Waxay sidoo kale muujinaysay loolanka sii xoogeysanaya ee u dhexeeya Shiinaha iyo Mareykanka, xilli labada dal ay isku hayaan hoggaanka dhaqaale iyo siyaasadeed ee dunida. Waxaa la filayaa in maalgelinta CIDCA ay door weyn ka ciyaarto horumarka kaabeyaasha dhaqaalaha ee dalalka Aasiya iyo Afrika, taasoo sii xoojin doonta xiriirka Shiinaha iyo waddamadaasi.
