Watch how Khatumo’s Taleh was sprayed with Bullets from Puntland Armed Forces

By A. Hindi

December 6, 2013

On November, 8th, 2013 Puntland Armed Forces have invaded the interim Capital City of Taleh, killing at least 10 and injuring dozens more. Residents of Taleh are finally able to speak about the shockingly unexpected massacre perpetrated by the State of Puntland. With Hundreds displaced in shelters and make-shifts on the outskirts of Taleh, with no food, water or even blankets, citizens of this city are yet to receive any support from international or local aid agencies.  

For those who doubted the source of this Tragedy in Taleh, and you perhaps thought that it was between two Khatumo communities, this is clear evidence that this was planned and executed by a Puntland’s State that zero-ed on destroying all things Khatumo Administration; see the litany of armaments that hit the Khatumo Headquarters, the Fig Tree, and Airport area.

Bullying armies from Burco and Bosaso may bring with them bigger bombs and bazookas But [oh Taleh] You should know that your people’s belief in you is priceless; When kids in kalabaydh andkalshaale colour their school walls with the blessed Kalimahs, of Khatumo and the cool words of SSC, you should know that the enemy’s days are numbered. Nothing can defeat the will of a modern Dervish dedicated to live in liberty and freedom. Clear of clannish thinking that often clouds the thoughts of even the learned, this new breed of khatumo Champions dared to imagine a Taleh that enhances its rich history with new high-rises and quality health services.
