Kenya's Minister of Defense, Aden Duale, recently announced that all Kenyan Defense Forces would withdraw entirely from Somalia by the end of 2024. This significant decision follows a gradual troop withdrawal from the African Union Transition Mission in Somalia (ATMIS) that began in April 2021.
The Mission's Background:
Kenya's involvement in Somalia traces back to 2011 when terrorist kidnappings by al-Shabaab posed a severe threat to East Africa's peace and stability. To address the crisis, Kenya deployed troops to Somalia as part of ATMIS. Over time, Kenya's troop numbers swelled to over 4,000, collaborating with other ATMIS forces to combat al-Shabaab.
Achievements and Challenges:
Minister Duale acknowledged that Kenyan forces, along with their partners, have made substantial progress in reducing the capabilities of al-Shabaab and restoring stability in various parts of Somalia. However, this mission has not been without difficulties, with hundreds of Kenyan lives lost in the process. Duale emphasized that the government has compensated the families of those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
The Withdrawal Plan:
The withdrawal plan follows the resolution and plan of the African Union and the United Nations Security Council. As of December 31, 2024, the last Kenyan troops are expected to leave Somalia. This process coincides with the withdrawal of 2,000 ATMIS soldiers from other contributing countries, including Uganda, Ethiopia, Djibouti, and Burundi.
Future Commitment:
While Kenya is withdrawing its troops, it remains committed to supporting Somali forces in their fight against al-Shabaab in central Somalia. The cooperation with international partners will be pivotal in maintaining peace, stability, and countering terrorism in the Horn of Africa region.
Conclusion:
Kenya's decision to withdraw its troops from Somalia by the end of 2024 marks a significant shift in its involvement in the region. It reflects progress made in the fight against terrorism while underlining the importance of international collaboration in maintaining peace and stability in East Africa.
