Jubbaland forces retake Bardhere district Headquarters after federal troops withdraw


Tuesday February 4, 2025

Mogadishu (HOL) – Jubbaland regional forces have regained control of the Bardhere district headquarters in the Gedo region after federal government troops vacated the area on Monday night. 

The withdrawal of federal forces is reportedly linked to the disbandment of units stationed at headquarters for several months. The reasons behind the disbandment remain undisclosed, but officials suggest it is part of the ongoing conflict between Jubbaland and federal forces.

Following the withdrawal, Adan Mohamud Ahmed, the commissioner of Bardhere district, alongside other district officials, inspected the site and photographed themselves inside the government buildings, demonstrating their full control of the facility. 

"We are now fully in control of the district headquarters and are committed to serving the local population under the Jubbaland administration," said Commissioner Adan Mohamud. 

The retaking of the district headquarters highlights the ongoing tensions between Jubbaland and the Federal Government of Somalia, which have led to divided administration and competition for control in Bardhere and other key areas within the Gedo region.
