Tensions Escalate as Somali Civil Aviation Official Murdered Amidst Airspace Disputes

By

In a disturbing turn of events, the Somali police have arrested six individuals linked to the killing of Abdinasir Muse Abdirahman, a 32-year-old employee of the Somali Civil Aviation Authority. Abdirahman's lifeless body was discovered at his residence in El-Qalow village, Wadajir district, Mogadishu, on Sunday evening.


Hailing from Gebiley town in northern Somalia, Abdirahman had recently returned from studying abroad and had previously worked with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) staff in Hargeisa. The motive behind his tragic killing remains unclear, and no group has claimed responsibility.


This incident comes at a time when tensions between the federal government of Somalia and the breakaway region of Somaliland are reaching a critical point, primarily revolving around control of the country's airspace. The situation intensified following a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between Ethiopia and Somaliland leader Muse Bihi Abdi, exacerbating the already strained relations.


Omar Sayid Abdulla, the director of the Somaliland Civil Aviation and Airports Authority (SL-CAAA), announced the swift assessment of individuals from Somaliland currently employed by the federal government of Somalia, highlighting the complex interplay between regional and federal authorities in the aviation sector.


The diplomatic disputes escalated last month when Somalia's Civil Aviation Authority (SCAA) denied airspace to an unscheduled Ethiopian Airlines flight, carrying senior Ethiopian officials to Somaliland. The incident underscored the deep-rooted disagreements between Somalia and Ethiopia, with Somalia's president, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, accusing Ethiopia of attempting to annex part of Somalia's territory.


President Mohamud, addressing reporters in Addis Ababa, expressed strong objections to the agreement between Ethiopia and Somaliland, signed on Jan. 1. He asserted that the deal amounted to "annexing part of Somalia to Ethiopia" and altering Somalia's borders, further fueling the diplomatic tensions in the region.


As investigations into the tragic death of Abdinasir Muse Abdirahman unfold, the incident adds another layer of complexity to the already intricate web of political and diplomatic challenges facing Somalia and its neighboring regions. The situation underscores the urgency for constructive dialogue to address the underlying issues and work towards regional stability.

Advance but No Deal: Talks between Ethiopia and Somalia in Turkey

By Abubakar Hussein
Significantly for East African diplomacy, the second round of Turkish-mediated negotiations between Somalia and Ethiopia concluded in Ankara on August 13, 2024, without a definitive deal. Officials from both nations and Turkey claim that despite this, the conversations made clear development. The focus of the debates is on a controversial port agreement Ethiopia signed in January 2024 with the self-declared sovereign nation of Somalandon. Relations between Ethiopia and Somaliland have been seriously strained by the deal wherein Ethiopia leases 20 kilometers of Somaliland's coastline in exchange for acceptance of Somaliland's independence. Viewing Somaliland as a part of its sovereign territory, Mogadishu denounced the agreement as unconstitutional, ejecting the Ethiopian ambassador and threatening to pull Ethiopian forces supporting Somalia out of the front lines against Islamist militants. Unlike past diplomatic interactions, the Ankara negotiations were conducted indirectly v...
