Mogadishu erupts into celebration as the Somali armies liberate Jigjiga

The Somali National Army needs to be dismantled and created again, three quarters of the entire army is foreign trained and is following the turkish military doctrine.

160 battalions would be roughly 12–15 divisions. Even mid-income countries struggle to sustain 3–6 divisions. You’ve got no clue what you’re talking about.

BREAKINGNEWS🚨

The Republic of Somaliland has reportedly carried out its largest military deployment to date, mobilizing up to 160 battalions (nearly 100,000 troops) of the branches of SAF, alongside mechanized and support divisions.

The buildup follows a presidential decree instructing the Ministry of Defense @SomalilandMoD to activate 40,000 reserve forces. Reports also indicate the addition of new contingents to Somaliland’s Coast Guard, significantly expanding coastal monitoring and surveillance units.

Does this signal that Somaliland is preparing for an all-out war, or is it a strategic show of deterrence and readiness?

Adari will be our capital after its liberation

Assad isn’t coming back and Ethiopia won’t gain access to the sea

Ethiopia shouldn't be landlocked. Eritrea was a mistake.

We never had Mi 24s it was actually used against us by the Russians in the war

[The Prodigal Son @notorious_pun]

Did you know Somalia was the first country to deploy the brand new mi-24 “flying tank” during the Ogaden war.

It blew through Ethiopian armoured units with ease. Rumors of unstoppable Somali air power spread rapidly increasing desertions and disorganization in frontline units

@walaalwhoops Posting everything for likes I guess 😂

@lionofbeledweyn We have to capture the entire eastern highlands for the country to have a natural defence, our present ‘Borders’ are a nightmare. ethi can trade space for time we can’t .

The Somali blitzkrieg needs to be studied

[55 sector @Gaalbeed]

On August 5, 1977, after just three weeks of heroic fighting, the Somali Forces had liberated 80% of the Ogaden (Western Somalia) . Only Jigjiga, Dire Dawa, and Harar remained under occupation. Victory was within reach.”

Godey was liberated by the blood and sweat of our heroes”

Liberated Godey 24th July 1977

@Abodi_alazes7 President Siad did not make a formal declaration of war. There’s a difference between officially declaring war and publicly announcing it to your people.

[55 sector @Gaalbeed]

On this day, 48 years ago at 0400 hours, tanks and BTR-60s of the 21st Division crossed into the Ogaden (Western Somalia) on the order of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces — marking the beginning of a historic campaign

[55 sector @Gaalbeed]

A few hours later, the 60th Division crossed the frontier following orders to commence operations.

[55 sector @Gaalbeed]

@ElitheRack Some units had already entered earlier but the general command was given on the morning of the 13th.

[55 sector @Gaalbeed]

@Abodi_alazes7 Somalia never declared war on Ethiopia, and on the 17th July with a small force we launched a surprise attack on Diridhaba, on the 24th we captured Godey.

[55 sector @Gaalbeed]

@Abodi_alazes7 23rd July is when we acknowledged that our army had gone in but 13 July is when we actually went in
