30 years of civil war in Somalia – BBC News
Somalia is marking 30 years of ongoing conflict since the government of President Siad Barre collapsed in January 1991.
In recent years a federal government has begun to make some progress in rebuilding the country, and Islamist militants have been pushed out of most major towns.
BBC Africa correspondent Andrew Harding has been covering Somalia’s troubles for over two decades, and has just been back to the capital Mogadishu to see what hopes people have for peace.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

Every evil is started by the west. They attacked this nation in 1880, captured, colonized, looted their resource, created conflict among the people and left.. And after independence they came back under the umbrella of bilateral relations, humanitarian assistance (NGOs), technical assistance, you name it and slowly dismantled the fabric of the society, armed the society and started civil war, and again left. Now they went back to start all over.
Why they do this? they have no faith, they follow SATAN's foot steps. SATAN is their master.

The reality is that the former president Farmajo is steal there without mandate,instead the Mogadishu civilians are severing the overloaded problems in there such insecurity, Texas payfulment to AlShabab, low income. But the big question is who rules there AlShabab or Farmajo kkkk. I think the shadow of AlShabab is stronger then the Farmajo regime.

Its not a civil war Somalias capital has be occupied by NATO since 1991 under the disguise of peace keeping in order to prevent a unity government and to isolate Somalia from the word because Somalia is an oil and resources rich country and its people have proven themselves to be the most dynamic in Africa after colonialism, supporting many African countries militarily against the colonialists.
