Somalia Prime Minister Holds Meeting with National Army Officers Undergoing Training in Qatar

Prime Minister Hamse Abdi Barre of Somalia convened a meeting with Somalia National Army (SNA) officers currently engaged in military training within the confines of Doha, Qatar. This encounter is a testament to the Federal Government’s heightened commitment to combat the Al-Shabaab group.

During the meeting, Prime Minister Hamse Abdi Barre articulated the fervent aspirations of the Somali populace, entrusting these officers with the task of spearheading liberation efforts against Al-Shabaab. The government firmly alleges that Al-Shabaab has inflicted significant harm on the lives and property of the Somali people.

He also conveyed his gratitude to the Government of Qatar for its unwavering support to both the Somalia Government and its citizens. This support notably extends to the production of high-caliber SNA officers, a vital component in Somalia’s ongoing security endeavors as reported by the government of Somalia.

Moreover, it is worth noting that the Federal Government has recently disclosed its intention to mount substantial operations against Al-Shabaab in the central and southern regions of the country. These efforts align closely with President Hassan Sheikh’s resolute stance on counterterrorism.
