Somalia accuses Ethiopia of attacking military bases in Doolow, escalating regional tensions.

Somalia accused Ethiopian forces of attacking military bases in Doolow, a town in the Gedo region, resulting in Somali military and civilian casualties. This follows a federal curfew imposed after Jubaland President Ahmed Madobe’s affiliates arrived in the town, leading to clashes between Somali federal government forces and Jubaland soldiers. The incident is seen as a violation of the Ankara Declaration, signed to ease tensions between the two countries. Meanwhile, political and election disputes add to the volatile situation in the region.
