...a region in northeastern Somalia, centered on Garowe in the Nugaal province. Its leaders declared the territory an autonomous state in 1998. Puntland and the equally autonomous Somaliland seem to have avoided the clan rivalries and warlordism that have typified the rest of Somalia, which puts both places high on the list for Islamic subversion...
's Minister of Security, Abdisalam Mohammed Gallan on Saturday morning.
The minister was on his way to Balli-dhadin area from the Iskushuban district in the Bari region at the time of the attack that resulted in the death of one soldier and the wounds of three others.

The delegation included the Commander of the Puntland Darwish Forces Geneneral Yasin Omar Dheere and Governor of Bari Region Abdisamad Yusuf Mohammed.
No group has grabbed credit for the liquidation bid however, the attack comes amid military operation against al-Shabaab
 ...... the personification of Somali state failure...
