Ethiopian troops pull out of central Somalia’s town
2016-05-13
Ethiopian troops under African Union mission in Somalia (AMISOM), who set up new bases in central Somalia’s town of Adaado, have on Thursday withdrawn from the town, residents said.
I think we'll be reading about this town (wherever the heck it is) in the next few days...
The withdrawal of the African Union peacekeepers from Ethiopia were reported after Ethiopian officials, who have been supposed to reach the town, have called off their visit to Adaado town. The arrival of the Ethiopian delegates in the town of Adaado was to open talks between Galmudug State and Somalia’s moderate Islamist group of Ahlu Sunna Waljame’a (ASWJ), officials said.

Ethiopia has mediated both regional State of Galmudug and Somalia-Ethiopian administration after several people were killed in an attack launched by Ethiopia’s Liyu police near Somalia-Ethiopia border.

Somalia’s moderate Islamist group of ASWJ did not comment on the talks reported to be planed by Ethiopia, in a bid to make negotiation by Ahlu Sunna and Galmudug State in Somalia.
