Former Prime Minister of Somalia Hassan Ali Khayre, who is among the members of the advisory board of the Rescue Council, spoke about the fighting that occurred this afternoon in parts of the Howlwadaag district of Mogadishu.

Prime Minister Khayre, in a brief statement posted on his social media, accused the government of President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud of launching an attack while he and the elder of his clan (Murursade) were holding a meeting in a house located in the Howlwadaag district.

Khayre stated that the responsibility for that act lies with the government of Hassan Sheikh, which he indicated was behind the attack while the opposition was preparing for a demonstration scheduled for tomorrow in Mogadishu.

In his statement, former Prime Minister Khayre mentioned that the fighting caused casualties, including deaths and injuries, although no one has confirmed the official numbers.

The fighting between the federal government and the opposition has recently ceased, but the areas where the fighting took place still feel the tension of conflict.
