SouthWest State Refutes distortion on Ethiopian Troop Withdrawal from Somalia
SouthWest State Refutes distortion on Ethiopian Troop Withdrawal from SomaliaBAIDOA, Somalia - The SouthWest State Ministry of Internal Security has publicly addressed and refuted claims made by Hussein Moalim, the National Security Advisor to the Somali President, regarding the role of Ethiopian troops in the post-African Union Transition Mission in Somalia (ATMIS) mission. Moalim, who announced the withdrawal of Ethiopian troops by December 2024, has been met with strong opposition from the SouthWest State Ministry. The SouthWest State Ministry's stance against Moalim's remarks underscores the complex security dynamics currently at play in Somalia, both during the transition period following the withdrawal of ATMIS troops and in the aftermath of this significant development. Ethiopian troops control large swathes of territory in Somalia, mainly in the Bay and Bakool regions under Southwest State. As the situation continues to evolve, the impact of this dispute between the SouthWest State and the Somali government on the broader security landscape in Somalia remains to be seen.

Egypt’s Sudanese refugees using rich cuisine to build new lives
CAIRO: Sudanese entrepreneur Julie Samir’s dream of opening a restaurant has finally come true, but it’s a bittersweet achievement after she fled Egypt from her war-torn homeland of Sudan. “The name was my father’s idea, inspired by the Bible,” she said, explaining the reference to Kush, the ancient kingdom that straddled modern-day Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia. “We serve all three cuisines,” she said proudly, but insisted the restaurant is still distinctly Sudanese. In the suburb of Sheikh Zayed, west of Cairo, Sudanese confectioner Qussay Biram’s dessert shop, “Jeeb Maak” — Arabic for “Bring Along” — sells deep-fried dough balls called ‘luqaimat’. “I want to hire a henna artist in the restaurant, I know Egyptians love that,” she said with a laugh.
