Somalia

The ICU and Somali government troops clashed over control over Baidoa’s airport, resulting in 12 dead. The weak Somali government is asking the ICU military to integrate into the government forces as the ICU meets with a senior UN representative. The ICU will hold a rally to protest any IGAD intervention.
