Six Puntland soldiers die in fatal accident
2015-06-22
GAROWE, Somalia -- At least six Puntland government soldiers died in fatal car accident on Garowe-Lasanod road according to medics on Sunday morning, Garowe Online reports.

19 others of whom 16 are in critical condition were injured after their anti-aircraft gun mounted pick-up truck veered off the road and overturned suddenly.
I think I see the problem...
The soldiers have been serving with Presidential security unit (PSU) and were heading from military base in Tukaraq to the capital, Garowe before the armoured truck overturned.
It's a Toyota of course. An F-150 would never overturn, and a Sierra would never get out of the garage...
With little rehabilitation, roads have been in bad condition and caused many car wrecks since Somali state collapse in 1991.
I see an employment opportunity for all those starving Somalis and those bountiful UN dollars, but they'd pro'ly just import Filipinos and Bangladeshis to do the work, just like in Arabia...
