Description |
A truck driver from the Habar Jeclo clan travelling from Laas Caanood to Burao was killed by two Dhulbahante gunmen on the outskirt of Yagoori on 24/12. The killing is reported to be a revenge action for the previous accidental killing of a local civilian of the Dhulbahante clan by a Somaliland soldier from the Habar Jeclo clan on 29/11. This last killing occurred despite an agreement from the family of the first victim to have the Somaliland soldier being trialed by a military court. Tension between the two clans remains high between Caynabo and Laas Caanood and further revenge killings could occur. |
