Puntland Oo Ku Eedeysay Turkey Duqeymaha Cirka Ee Dhimashada Ahaa Kadib Afduub Markab
Maamulka Puntland ayaa ku eedeeyay Turkey in ay fulisay duqeymaha cirka ee aan la sheegan oo qayb ka mid ah xeebta ka dhashay kadib markii budhcad-badeed Soomaaliyeed ay afduubeen markab xamuul ah oo qaaday agab milatari Turkey ah. Ugu yaraan 13 qof ayaa la sheegay in ay ku dhinteen gobolka Nugaal.
Eedeymaha iyo Jawaabta Turkey
Abdirahman Yusuf Dujana, oo ah kuxigeenka wasiirka amniga Puntland, ayaa BBC Somali u sheegay in maamulka gobolku uu aaminsan yahay in Turkey ay mas'uul ka tahay laba duqeybood oo ay ku dhinteen ugu yaraan 13 qof oo ku sugnaa gobolka Nugaal. Wuxuu sidoo kale ku eedeeyay dowladda dhexe ee Soomaaliya in ay ku lug leedahay, laakiin caddeyn madax-bannaan lama helin.
Wasaaradda Difaaca Turkey ayaa Khamiis sheegtay in Taliska Guutada Soomaali-Turkey uu taageero siiyo mas'uuliyiinta Soomaaliya ee ku saabsan dhacdada, laakiin ma aysan sheegin in ciidamada Turkey ay sameeyeen duqeymahaas. Ma jirto dawlad, ciidan ama koox hubaysan oo qirta mas'uuliyadda.
Faahfaahinta Duqeymaha iyo Markabka La Afduubay
Duqeygii ugu horreeyay wuxuu dhacay Ogosto 18, maalin kadib markii budhcad-badeeddu ay afduubeen M/V LUTUF oo shaqada ka joojisay Cameroon u dhow Puntland, halkaas oo ay ku dhinteen afar qof oo u dhow Garmaal. Duqeygii labaad ee Ogosto 23 agagaarka Jiifle ayaa dilay sagaal qof sida uu sheegay duqa deegaanka.
Budhcad-badeeddu waxay afduubeen LUTUF Ogosto 17 oo qiyaastii 3.5 mayl-badeed u jirta Marraya ee degmada Eyl, markabka oo wata lix Hindi, hal Turkish, hal Georgian iyo laba ilaaliye Serbian. Sarkaal Soomaaliyeed ayaa AP u sheegay in markabku watay hub Turkey ah iyo qalab loogu talagalay xarun tababar milatari Mogadishu.
Doonista Caalamiga ah iyo Mowqifka Puntland
Ururka Maritime-ga Caalamiga ah ayaa Ogosto 24 sheegay in budhcad-badeeddu ay haystaan lix markab iyo in ka badan 90 badmaaxayaal, halka Xarunta Baarista Budhcad-badeedu ay qortay in 94 boqolkiiba shaqaalaha la afduubay ay ahaayeen kuwo Soomaaliyeed badhtamihii 2026. Dujana wuxuu dalbaday taageero badeed oo caalami ah.
Madaxweynaha Puntland Said Abdullahi Deni ayaa dhaleeceeyay dilalka, isagoo leh kuwa loo aqoonsaday budhcad-badeed waa in ay wajahaan maxkamad halkii loo dilay iyadoo aan nidaam jirin. Dujana wuxuu xaqiijiyay in Puntland aysan caddeyn u hayn xiriirka Al-Shabaab ama IS ee afduubka.
Puntland's deputy security minister has accused Turkey of carrying out unclaimed air strikes along its coast that killed at least 13 people, following the hijacking of a cargo ship carrying Turkish military supplies by Somali pirates.
Unclaimed Strikes Kill at Least 13
Puntland's deputy security minister Abdirahman Yusuf Dujana told BBC Somali that Ankara was responsible for two strikes in the Nugaal region that killed at least 13 people. The first strike on August 18 near Garmaal killed four and wounded two after a small boat returned to shore from the direction of the hijacked vessel. Initial reports described the dead as suspected pirates, but relatives and residents disputed that account, saying some were fishermen.
A second strike on August 23 near Jiifle in Godob-Jiraan district killed nine people, according to the local mayor. A resident who visited the site saw eight badly burnt bodies and said some of the young men aboard the boat were known locally as fishermen. No government, military force or armed group has publicly claimed responsibility for either attack.
Hijacked Ship Carried Turkish Military Supplies
Pirates seized the Cameroon-flagged M/V LUTUF on August 17 about 3.5 nautical miles off Marraya in Puntland's Eyl district and steered it towards the Nugaal coast. A Somali official told AP that the vessel was carrying Turkish weapons, communications equipment and satellite systems destined for a Turkish military training facility in Mogadishu. The ship's 10-member crew included six Indians, one Turkish national, one Georgian and two Serbian security guards.
Turkish-owned vessels, helicopters and drones had been monitoring the area after the hijacking, according to the same official. Somalia Today reported that the pirates demanded about $2 million for the ship's release, though it remained unclear whether formal ransom negotiations had begun. Dujana said Puntland remained committed to fighting piracy but that operations had become more difficult because the hijackers were holding crew members hostage.
Federal Role and Turkey's Response Questioned
Dujana also accused Somalia's federal government of involvement but did not provide independently verifiable evidence linking either Ankara or Mogadishu to the attacks. State Minister for Defence Omar Ali Abdi said on August 22 that Mogadishu was aware of military operations and strikes taking place off Puntland and was preparing a comprehensive report, but he did not identify the force carrying out the strikes or say whether the federal government had authorised them.
Turkey's Defence Ministry said on Thursday that the Somali-Turkish Task Force Command was providing support to Somali authorities over the incident, but did not say whether Turkish forces had carried out the strikes. Puntland President Said Abdullahi Deni later criticised the killings, saying suspected pirates should face legal proceedings rather than be killed without due process. Somalia Today sought further clarification from Turkish officials and Somalia's defence and information ministries but had not received a response as of publication.
