You can’t claim to support stability while pouring fuel on #Aleppo’s fire. #Turkey’s military pressure and backing of armed factions are making #Syria’s wounds bleed again. Civilians are not collateral — they are victims of regional power games.

THE CANCER OF HUMANITY

[Ramadan @RamadanCader]

#Djibouti largest ethnic group the Afars who make up 80% of the territory of Djibouti and 55% of the population’s armed wing the FRUD ARMÉE are expected to release a statement supporting the State Of Israel’s recognition of the Republic Of #Somaliland. The armed political group has been fighting the authoritarian rule of dictator @IsmailOguelleh to establish a democratic multiparty Djibouti.

The group recognised Somaliland on March 18 1992 a year after Somaliland dissolved the illegitimate Union with Somalia under the groups then president Ahmed Diini.

#Somalia Signals Interest in Abraham Accords, Analyst Says

Somalia has made quiet diplomatic outreach to Israel through intermediaries, signaling its intention to join the Abraham Accords, according to senior Horn of Africa analyst DR @RAbdiAnalyst
Israel is said to welcome #Mogadishu’s interest but not at the expense of its ties with #Somaliland , underscoring Tel Aviv’s effort to balance relations in the Horn of Africa.

"Somalia making frantic outreach to Israel via intermediaries to signal its intent to join the Abraham Accords. This is great news for Israel. Israel is happy to get Mogadishu to join the Abraham Accords but not at the expense of Hargeisa. Looks like Tel Aviv may get two sovereign Somali states for the price of one. Who would have thought !" Dr @RAbdiAnalyst said

Israel’s Recognition of Somaliland—An Opening for Upgrading Defensive and Offensive Capabilities

Iky Hazan and INSS researcher Dr. Yehoshua Kalisky write:

Israel’s recognition of Somaliland and the mutual development of diplomatic relations could enable Israel to significantly upgrade its offensive and defensive capabilities. A report published last year by the website Middle East Monitor stated that Somaliland, with the mediation of the United Arab Emirates, expressed a willingness to allow Israel to establish a military base on its territory in exchange for Israel’s recognition of its sovereignty, the establishment of diplomatic relations, and economic investments. It’s possible that within the framework of the current recognition, Somaliland may also discreetly allow Israel to establish a military presence on its territory. This issue also corresponds with a statement by Somaliland’s former head of intelligence regarding the Somaliland government’s commitment “to defend the interests of the West, and particularly the interests of Israel.”

The advantage of establishing a military base in Somaliland is clear. First, the deployment of radar systems and sensors in Somaliland would strengthen detection and early-warning capabilities against launches. A foothold in Somaliland would grant Israel strategic depth, with enhanced defensive and offensive capabilities against Houthi targets from a much shorter range—at most several hundred kilometers, compared to an estimated distance of 2,000 kilometers or more from Israel—while reducing the costs and logistical complexity of long-range strikes and enabling rapid, real-time operational responses. From a defensive perspective, this would provide capabilities for intercepting ballistic missiles in close geographic proximity to the launch point, particularly during the boost phase, when the missile’s speed is still relatively low, its maneuverability is limited, and its casing is vulnerable to external damage. Intercepting missiles far from Israeli territory has the advantage that debris from interceptors, engine parts, fragments of the missile or rocket body, and the warhead’s explosive payload fall within enemy territory—thereby preventing direct and collateral damage to Israel’s population. In addition, this provides Israel with operational flexibility and a time buffer in the event of an interception failure. Another advantage of early interception in enemy territory is the avoidance of the need to send large civilian populations to protected areas, a measure that entails significant economic and psychological costs.

At present, the implementation of missile interception during the boost phase is limited due to geopolitical, economic, and technological reasons. However, in the near future, intercepting missiles at early stages of launch—possibly even during the boost phase—may become feasible due to technological and operational developments such as more advanced and faster interceptors and sensors, as well as the use of advanced versions of the Iron Beam laser weapon, particularly versions based on high-power airborne laser systems. The combination of geopolitical developments and innovative technologies may enable Israel in the coming years to upgrade its defensive and offensive capabilities against enemies and ballistic threats in the outer circle.

The contrast is clear.#Somaliland has maintained self-rule, peaceful leadership transitions, and pluralistic politics for decades.#Djibouti,reliant on strategic rents, opposes recognition—not legally, but to protect regional leverage and port dominance. Competition, not principle

[Khalifka @HamseAaden]

#Somaliland enters 2026 playing a hard game: symbolic recognition without broad backing, rising pressure from #Somalia’s #TurkeyChina axis, and #AU resistance. Its future depends on leveraging stability, ports, and security value before isolation hardens.

[Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA]

For anyone who forgot, this is what the African Union itself determined regarding Somaliland:
“The fact that the union between Somaliland and Somalia was never ratified and also malfunctioned when it went into action from 1960 to 1990, makes Somaliland's search for recognition historically unique and self-justified in African political history.”
