| Description |
At least one militiaman was killed and another one injured after local militias attacked a police post near Mareera village. The militiamen reportedly briefly took control of the post but were dislodged from the position by regrouped Puntland forces. This attack is believed to be linked to an arrest of several militiamen in the village by Puntland forces a week before for alleged links to human trafficking networks. Mareera is known as a hub for human trafficking between Somalia and Yemen. |
