Iraq says 2 drones downed near ‘vital facility’ in Basra.
Saturday March 2026 {HMC} Iraqi security forces shot down two drones near a vital facility in Basra in southern Iraq on Friday evening, according to the Iraqi News Agency.
The Security Media Cell said in a statement that two unmanned aerial vehicles were intercepted and downed outside one of the country’s “vital facilities” in Basra.
No further details were immediately provided regarding the facility involved. No damage or casualties were reported.
In another development, the Security Media Cell said in a statement that at 8.20 p.m local time, several rockets were launched from a vehicle in Abu Ghraib, west of Baghdad.
Some of the rockets fell in empty areas far from Baghdad International Airport, causing no reported human or material losses.
Security forces quickly seized the vehicle used in the attack, which still contained additional rockets before they could be launched. The remaining rockets were secured and handled by specialized technical teams.
Authorities said an immediate investigation had been opened into the incident, with further details to be announced later.
Iran has launched missiles and drones toward Israel, Iraq, and Gulf countries that it says are home to “US military assets” since Feb. 28. Some of the attacks have caused casualties and damage to civilian sites, including ports and residential buildings.
Tehran says the attacks came in response to a US-Israeli military campaign against Iran that has killed hundreds of people, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and top military officials.
Iraqi factions aligned with Iran said they had participated in attacks targeting “American bases” in Iraq, according to media channels affiliated with those groups.

Iiraan oo ku hanjabtay in ay weerari doonto warshadda Nukliyeerka Israa’iil.
Sabti 7 Maarso 2026 {HMC} Sarkaal ka tirsan militariga Iran ayaa sheegay in iskuday kasta oo Mareykanka iyo Israa’iil ay ku doonayaan in ay ku afgambiyaan maamulka Iiraan iyada oo loo marayo “Fowdo hubeysan” lagala kulmi doono jawaab toos ah oo ay ka mid tahay in la bartilmaameedsado xarunta tamarta Nukliyeerka ee Dimona ee Israa’iil.
Sarkaalku waxa uu intaa ku daray, hadal lagu baahiyey mareegaha wararka Iiraan oo sheegaya in “fulinta qorshe kasta oo looga gol-leeyahay in lagu dumiyo nidaamka ay ku khasbayso Iiraan inay beegsato kaabayaasha tamarta ee gobolka”.
Inkasta oo Israa’iil aysan waligeed si rasmi ah u qiran in ay haysato hubka Nukliyeerka, haddana qiimayn caalami ah oo badan ayaa muujinaysa in ay haysato. Barnaamijkeeda Nukliyeerka ayaa lagu tiriyaa mid ka mid ah hubka sirta ah ee wax gumaada ee caalamka.
Israa’iil ma aysan saxiixin heshiiska ka hortagga faafinta hubka Nukliyeerka oo ah heshiis caalami ah oo looga hortagayo fiditaanka hubkan.
Sababtaas awgeed, xarumaheeda Nukliyeerka ayaan hoos imanayn nidaamka ilaalinta tamarta Nukliyeerka ee caalamiga ah, kaas oo u oggolaanaya wakaaladdu inay kormeer joogto ah ku sameyso xarumaha Nukliyeerka ee dalalka ku biiray heshiiska.
Awoodaha Nukliyeerka ee Israa’iil ayaa weli ah mawduuca qiyaasaha sirdoonka ee aan la hubin tan iyo 1960-meeyadii, markii ay billowday in ay ka shaqeyso tamarta Nukliyeerka ee Dimona ee saxaaraha Negev.
Bartamihii 1980-meeyadii, qayb ka mid ah awooddaas ayaa la shaaciyay ka dib markii Injineerkii hore ee Nukliyeerka Mordechai Vanunu uu siiyay wargeys Ingiriis ah sharraxaad iyo sawirro waxa uu ku sheegay inay yihiin madaxyada Nukliyeerka ee Israa’iil.
Xogta uu daaha ka qaaday Vanunu ayaa keentay in dib loo qiimeeyo qiyaasihii hore ee xaddiga hubka Nukliyeerka ee Israa’iil, kaas oo sanadkii 2003-dii lagu qiyaasay in aanu ka yarayn 100 madax oo Nukliyeer ah lagana yaabo in uu gaari karo ilaa 200.
Ma jiro wax caddaynaya in Israa’iil ay samaysay tijaabo Nukliyeer ah oo si cad loo aqoonsan yahay. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, cilmi-baarayaasha qaarkood ayaa soo jeedinaya in qarax looga shakisan yahay in uu ka dhacay koonfurta badweynta Hindiya 1979-kii uu ahaa tijaabada Nukliyeerka ee Israa’iil, lagana yaabo in lala kaashaday Koonfur Afrika, inkastoo aan weli la xaqiijin.
President of Russia Vladimir Putin and President of Iran Masoud Pezeshkian had a telephone conversation.
Saturday March 2026 {HMC} During the telephone conversation with President of the Islamic Republic of Iran Masoud Pezeshkian Vladimir Putin has once again expressed his heartfelt condolences on the assassination of Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran Grand Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei along with his family members and the country’s military and political leadership, as well as the numerous civilian casualties resulting from the United States and Israel’s armed aggression against Iran.
Vladimir Putin reaffirmed Russia’s principled stance in favour of an immediate cessation of hostilities, the rejection of force as a method to solve any issues surrounding Iran or arising in the Middle East, and a swift return to the path of diplomatic resolution.
In this regard, the President of Russia noted that he was in constant contact with the leaders of the Gulf Cooperation Council member states.
Masoud Pezeshkian expressed gratitude for Russia’s solidarity with the Iranian people as they defend their sovereignty and the independence of their country. He also provided a detailed update on the developments during the latest active phase of the conflict.
Sababta Aqoonsiga Somaliland uusan u beddeli karin xaqiiqada Soomaaliya
Sabti 7 Maarso 2026 {HMC} – Markii sanadka dhammaanayay, shacabka Soomaaliyeed ayaa si lama filaan ah uga naxay markii Ra’iisul Wasaaraha Israa’iil uu ku dhawaaqay in ay aqoonsadeen Somaliland, oo ah gobol ismaamul ah oo ka tirsan Soomaaliya.
Qaar ka mid ah Soomaalida ayaa aad ugu farxay warkaasi, iyagoo u arkay dhacdo taariikhi ah. Laakiin kuwo kale ayaa ka walaacay in arrintani ay keeni karto in dalka sii kala qaybsamo.
Si kastaba, markii waqtigu sii socday waxaa cadaatay in tallaabada Israa’iil aysan wax badan ka beddelin mowqifkii hore ee dunida: Soomaaliya weli waa hal dal oo mideysan.
Israa’iil waxay jebisay wax loo arkayay “xeer aan la jabin.” Intii uu socday dagaalkii sokeeye ee Soomaaliya laga bilaabo 1991 ilaa bilowgii 2000-meeyadii, dadaalladii Somaliland ee ay ku dooneysay aqoonsi caalami ah waxaa badanaa lagu qaabilay shaki. Sababta waxay ahayd cabsi laga qabay in tallaabo kasta oo degdeg ah ay sii kicin karto xasillooni darrada gobolka.
Gobolkan wuxuu ku yaal meel muhiim u ah ganacsiga caalamka, gaar ahaan marinka maraakiibta ee aadka u mashquulka badan. Sidaas darteed, waddamo badan waxay u arkayeen in xaaladda sidii ay ahayd loo daayo ay ka wanaagsan tahay in tijaabo siyaasadeed la sameeyo.
Inkasta oo ay jireen khatarahaas, Israa’iil waxay go’aansatay inay aqoonsato Somaliland. Ku dhawaaqistaas waxaa lagu sameeyay wada hadal muuqaal (video call) ah, iyadoo aan lala tashan waddamo kale oo muhiim ah. Tani waxay u muuqatay in Israa’iil ay mudnaanta siisay danaha istaraatiijiyadeed ee u gaar ah, halkii ay ka tixgelin lahayd sharciga caalamiga ah ee aqoonsanaya midnimada iyo madaxbannaanida Soomaaliya.
Wasiirka Gaashaandhigga Soomaaliya, Axmed Macallim Fiqi, ayaa si xoog leh uga hadlay arrintan. Wareysi uu siiyay Al-Jazeera ayuu ku sheegay in dowladda Soomaaliya ay ogaatay in Israa’iil ay wado qorshe qarsoodi ah oo Falastiiniyiinta lagu dejinayo Somaliland.
Dhacdo kale oo uu ka hadlay ayuu ku sheegay in Israa’iil ay doonayso inay saldhig militari ka dhisato meel u dhow marinka Bab al-Mandeb, si ay u ballaariso awooddeeda militari ee gobolka. Wuxuu sheegay in arrintani ay tahay isku day lagu adeegsanayo xaaladda gudaha Soomaaliya si loo gaaro dano juqraafi-siyaasadeed oo shisheeye.
Si kastaba, waddamo badan oo saaxiib la ah Soomaaliya ayaa diiday tallaabada Israa’iil. Turkiga, oo door weyn ka qaatay dib u dhiska Soomaaliya, wuxuu sheegay in go’aan kasta oo khuseeya Soomaaliya iyo gobolladeeda uu ku salaysnaan karo oo keliya rabitaanka shacabka Soomaaliyeed.
Shir jaraa’id oo uu Qaahira kula qabtay Madaxweynaha Masar Cabdel Fattah al-Sisi, Madaxweynaha Turkiga Recep Tayyip Erdoğan wuxuu sheegay in Ankara aysan aqbalayn go’aamo hal dhinac ah oo dhaawacaya midnimada Soomaaliya.
Dhanka kale, gudaha Somaliland gaar ahaan gobolka Awdal, dadka qaarkood ayaa diiday xiriirka lala sameeyay Israa’iil. Boqolaal qof oo ku nool magaalada Boorama ayaa bannaanbaxyo sameeyay, iyagoo sheegay in aqoonsigu yahay mid dibadda laga soo riixay oo aan ka tarjumayn rabitaanka shacabka.
Bannaanbaxyadaasi waxay sidoo kale ka tarjumayeen cabashooyin hore oo ku saabsan sinnaan la’aan siyaasadeed iyo dhaqaale, sida miisaaniyad aan si caddaalad ah loo qaybin iyo qorshe horumarineed oo yar.
Maamulka Somaliland ayaa u diray ciidamo si ay u joojiyaan bannaanbaxyada, waxaana la xiray culimo iyo dhalinyaro. Halkii ay arrintu dejin lahayd, waxay sii kordhisay xiisadda.
Bilowgii 2026, xildhibaano ka tirsan Baarlamaanka Federaalka Soomaaliya oo matalaya Awdal iyo hoggaamiyeyaal deegaanka ah ayaa ku dhawaaqay samaynta Guban State, waxayna sheegeen inay la safan yihiin dowladda dhexe ee Soomaaliya.
Dhanka kale, gobol kale oo Somaliland sheegato, SSC-Khaatumo, wuxuu isu beddelay North Eastern (NE) State of Somalia, wuxuuna si rasmi ah uga mid noqday nidaamka federaalka Soomaaliya. Geeddi-socodkan oo bilowday 2023 ayaa la soo gabagabeeyay markii madaxweynaha Soomaaliya iyo saraakiil sare ay ka qeyb galeen caleemo saarkiisa.
Dhacdooyinkan waxay muujinayaan xaqiiq muhiim ah: Somaliland si buuxda uguma taliso dhammaan dhulalka ay sheegato. Gobollada Awdal iyo NE State, dadka deegaanka waxay doorteen inay ku biiraan nidaamka federaalka Soomaaliya.
Madaxweynaha Soomaaliya Xasan Sheekh Maxamuud ayaa si cad u sheegay:
“Midnimada dhuleed ee Soomaaliya lama gorgortami karo. Qof kasta oo isku dayaya inuu wax u dhimo ma guuleysan doono.”
Hay’ado badan oo caalami ah sida Midowga Afrika (AU), Midowga Yurub (EU), IGAD, OIC iyo GCC ayaa sidoo kale taageeray midnimada Soomaaliya.
Xitaa saaxiibka dhow ee Israa’iil, Madaxweynihii hore ee Maraykanka Donald Trump, ayaa ku celiyay in Maraykanku weli taageersan yahay siyaasadda “Hal Soomaaliya (One-Somalia policy)” shir degdeg ah oo Qaramada Midoobay ah 30-kii Diseembar 2025.
Kadib aqoonsiga Israa’iil, hoggaanka Somaliland waxay isku dayeen inay ka faa’iideystaan si ay taageero caalami ah u helaan. Safarkooda Shirka Dhaqaalaha Adduunka ee Davos ayaa gudaha loogu soo bandhigay guul diblomaasiyadeed.
Laakiin xaqiiqda waxay noqotay in safarkaasi muujiyay xaddidaadda aqoonsiga caalamiga ah ee Somaliland. Sida ay sheegeen ilo diblomaasiyadeed, safarka waxaa fududeeyay Israa’iil si ay Somaliland u hesho xiriirro cusub.
Hoggaamiyaha Somaliland si rasmi ah looma casuumin inuu ka qayb galo kulamada rasmiga ah ee shirka. Waxa ugu weyn ee ka soo baxay safarka wuxuu ahaa kulan iyo casho ay la yeesheen wakiillo Israa’iiliyiin ah, oo ah waddanka keliya ee aqoonsaday Somaliland.
Sawirro laga qaaday kulamadaas – oo ay ku jiraan kuwo lala galay Madaxweynaha Israa’iil Isaac Herzog – ayaa la faafiyay si loo muujiyo guul diblomaasiyadeed.
Cashada waxaa sidoo kale joogay Eric Trump, oo ah wiilka Donald Trump. Laakiin joogitaankiisu macnaheedu ma ahayn in Maraykanku beddelay mowqifkiisa. Maraykanku wuxuu mar kale ku celiyay Qaramada Midoobay siyaasaddiisa “Hal Soomaaliya.”
Waddan Yurub ah ma taageerin kala go’a Soomaaliya. Waddan ka tirsan Midowga Afrika ma aqbalin aqoonsigaas.
Ugu dambayn, dhacdadan waxay muujisay xaqiiq muhiim ah: aqoonsi caalami ah lama samayn karo sawirro, kulamo gaar ah, ama taageero dibadeed oo kooban. Dunida inteeda badan weli waxay u aqoonsan tahay Soomaaliya dal madax-bannaan oo mideysan.
Haddii Somaliland rabto aqoonsi dhab ah, qoraagu wuxuu sheegay in waddada saxda ahi ay tahay wadahadal siyaasadeed oo dhex mara Soomaalida gudahooda, iyadoo la tixgelinayo dastuurka iyo madaxbannaanida Soomaaliya.

Why Somaliland’s recognition cannot change Somalia’s reality.
Friday 6 March 2026 {HMC} as the year drew to a close, Somali citizens were caught by surprise when Israel’s Prime Minister announced the recognition of Somaliland, which is a semi-autonomous region in Somalia.
While some Somalis celebrated in ecstasy over this historic declaration, others expressed serious concerns about potential further fragmentation in the country.
However, as time passed, it became abundantly clear that Israel’s move did little more than reaffirm Somalia’s long-standing position: Somalia remains a single, unified state.
Israel broke what many nations perceived as an “unbroken rule.” Throughout the Somali Civil War from 1991 to early 2000’s, Somaliland’s persistent push for recognition was largely met with skepticism due to strategic caution.
The apprehension of exacerbating instability in an already volatile region was a grave concern for stakeholders across the international community.
Situated along one of the world’s busiest shipping lanes, with direct implications for trade and security, maintaining the status quo was seen as the prudent choice over experimentation.
Despite these prevailing risks, Israel proceeded with its declaration. The informal nature of the announcement, conducted via a video call and without consulting key partners, appeared to be a deliberate choice by the Israeli administration.
By moving forward unilaterally without global consensus, Israel prioritised its own strategic interests over the broader international legal framework that has consistently recognized Somalia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
The Somali Minister of Defense Ahmed Moalliim Fiqi was among the most vocal in expressing concern. In an interview with Al-Jazeera, he stated that his government confirmed “Israel is pursuing a covert plan to forcibly relocate Palestinians to the separatist region of Somaliland.”
At another event, he suggested Israel was seeking to establish a military base near the Bab al-Mandeb Strait to project its military presence. He characterized the situation as one in which Somalia’s internal dynamics were being manipulated to serve external geopolitical interests in the Horn of Africa.
However, many of Somalia’s partners rejected Tel Aviv’s move. Türkiye, which has played a prominent role in Somalia’s state-building and reconstruction process, emphasized that any steps concerning Somalia and its northern region must reflect the will of the Somali people.
During a joint press conference in Cairo with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan reiterated that Ankara does not acknowledge unilateral decisions that undermine Somalia’s unity.
Diplomatic declarations, while dramatic, cannot substitute for legitimacy rooted in local consent. In Somaliland’s Awdal region, the announcement of normalization with Israel was met with immediate disapproval.
Hundreds of Borama residents took to the streets in protest, viewing the recognition as externally driven and disconnected from local aspirations. These protests reflected longstanding grievances over political and economic marginalization, including concerns over inequitable budget allocations and limited development planning from Hargeisa.
The administration responded by deploying security forces to suppress demonstrations, resulting in the arrest of clerics and several youths. Rather than consolidating authority, the events deepened tensions.
In early 2026, Somali Federal lawmakers representing Awdal, alongside local leaders, announced the formation of Guban State and aligned the new entity with Somalia’s central government.
Meanwhile, in another region claimed by Somaliland, SSC-Khaatumo reconstituted itself as the North Eastern (NE) State of Somalia and consolidated its position within Somalia’s federal framework. The institutional process, which began in early 2023, was finalized with the attendance of Somalia’s president and senior federal officials at its inauguration.
These developments clarified a central reality: Somaliland does not exercise uncontested authority across the territories it claims. In both Awdal and the North Eastern State, local communities aligned themselves with Somalia’s federal system, reinforcing the argument that domestic legitimacy remains the cornerstone of political authority.
At the federal level, this position was declared unambiguously. President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud emphasized: “Somalia’s territorial integrity is non-negotiable. Any attempts to undermine it will not succeed, and all disputes must be resolved within the framework of our federal constitution.”
Multiple global bodies including the AU, EU, EAC, IGAD, OIC, and GCC—underscored Somalia’s unity as a central priority. Even Israel’s staunch ally, President Donald Trump, reaffirmed the United States’ commitment to the One-Somalia policy during the UN emergency session on December 30, 2025. European and African states echoed this stance, signaling that unilateral recognition does not alter established legal or political norms.
In the weeks that followed, Somaliland’s leadership sought to transform Israel’s declaration into broader diplomatic leverage. Their appearance at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos was presented domestically as a diplomatic breakthrough. In reality, the visit revealed the limits of Somaliland’s international standing.
According to diplomatic sources, the trip had been prearranged through Israeli facilitation, aimed at gaining access to influential networks and projecting the appearance of growing recognition. Irro was not formally invited to participate in official WEF sessions or proceedings.
The most notable outcome of the visit was a side meeting and dinner, ironically, with representatives from Israel, the only country to have formally recognized Somaliland. Photographs from these encounters, including images with Israeli President Isaac Herzog, were circulated to project diplomatic momentum.
Another figure present at the dinner was Eric Trump, son of U.S. President Donald Trump. His presence did not represent an official shift in Washington’s position. On the contrary, the United States reaffirmed its longstanding One-Somalia policy at the United Nations Security Council emergency meeting just days after Israel’s declaration.
No European country signaled support for fragmentation. No African Union member state endorsed the move. Davos did not translate symbolic recognition into institutional legitimacy.
Israel’s recognition treated a fragmented and disputed territory as though it were a consolidated state. In reality, Somaliland’s authority remains contested in key regions. The consolidation of the North Eastern State within Somalia’s federal system and the formation of Guban State illustrate that domestic consensus across Somaliland’s claimed territories is far from settled.
Davos ultimately underscored a fundamental truth: international legitimacy cannot be manufactured through informal diplomacy, external patronage, or photo opportunities. The international system continues to recognize Somalia as a sovereign, unified state. Any durable political settlement must therefore emerge through Somali-led dialogue within the country’s constitutional framework.
This episode reaffirmed that Somalia’s territorial integrity remains intact and that external gestures cannot override political realities on the ground. If Somaliland seeks genuine legitimacy, the path forward lies in negotiated engagement that respects Somalia’s sovereignty. Until then, claims to statehood will remain fragile and unsubstantiated.
