Turning a blind eye to such atrocities and sponsoring of terrorist activities is not just a failure of leadership but acquiescence.

Praising SL effusively as peaceful and stable is not only disingenuous but perpetuates violence and terrorism is nothing short of #hypocrisy, #doubleStandards, and profoundly #Orwellian.

By failing to hold SL accountable, the international community risks legitimizing its actions and undermining the billions of dollars invested in global anti-terrorism efforts and the importance of the stability of the #HornAfrica.

These calculated acts of violence, paired with its historical support for terrorism, paint a clear and concerning picture of SL’s intentions and the utter disdain it shows for peace and stability.

This campaign displaced nearly 300,000 people, killed thousands, and left tens of thousands wounded, including women, children, and the elderly.

The atrocities of SL are not limited to terrorism. In 2023, SL waged a brutal war of aggression on #Laascaanood under the leadership of war criminal #MuseBihi, indiscriminately shelling schools, hospitals, mosques, and homes for eight months.

Similarly, in his own words, as shown in the video below Mustafe Bacluul, the outgoing Director of Intelligence of SL admitted: 'Berbera, our main economic hub, has at least 200 people passing through to join #AlShabab in Galgala.'
