NISA condemns armed forces of the opposition to the Federal Government

MUQDISHO, 11, October 2026 [HMC] – The National Intelligence and Security Agency (NISA) expresses its deep concern and strongly condemns the attacks and armed actions against the People’s Protection Forces of the Agency, who were operating in the First Division of General Da’ud’s Sector, Wadajir District, Banaadir Region. These actions involve armed militias who take orders from the former President of Somalia, Sharif Sheikh Ahmed.

The militias attempted to push the security forces into an armed confrontation, but the People’s Protection Forces demonstrated vigilance and professionalism, avoiding any actions that could lead to conflict and harm to civilians. Evidence collected by NISA indicates that militias armed with AK-47s, BKM, and RPG forcibly entered homes in the Tiintiinley neighborhood of Wadajir District.

Additionally, on June 24, 2026, these militias attacked the People’s Protection Forces, and one of the soldiers performing their duties was abducted. On June 27, 2026, they once again obstructed security operations of the forces operating in General Da’ud’s Sector.

The National Intelligence and Security Agency (NISA) is a security agency operating under the law and is independent of political struggles. Therefore, NISA will not allow its forces to be drawn into political disputes, nor will it engage in any negotiations regarding the security and safety of the Somali people. The Agency is committed to fulfilling its legal obligations, maintaining the stability of the capital, and preventing any actions that threaten the security of the community.
