Mogadishu, 2(SONNA) – The African Union Transition Mission in Somalia
(ATMIS) officially handed over Maslah Forward Operating Base (FOB) to the
Federal Government of Somalia, ceding control of the facility it had occupied since
2012.

The handover is in line with the joint Concept of Operations (CONOPs) and the
Somali Transition Plan – developed by the Federal Government of Somalia, ATMIS,
the UN and development partners to guide the transition process.
A land lease agreement formalizing the handover was signed by the Special
Representative of the Chairperson of the African Union Commission (SRCC) for
Somalia and Head of ATMIS Ambassador Mohamed El-Amine Souef and Somalia’s
State Minister for Defence, Abdinur Daahir Fidow at a ceremony held in the
capital, Mogadishu.

“Today is a proud moment for us as a Mission. Maslah is the first facility to be
handed over by ATMIS since its inception in 1 April 2022, following the end of the
AMISOM mandate,” the SRCC said at the ceremony attended by top Federal
Government of Somalia officials, envoys and representatives of the UN and troop
contributing countries (TCC’s).
