MOGADISHU (SONNA) — The Minister of Defense for the Federal Republic of Somalia, H.E. Ahmed Moalim Fiqi, delivered a comprehensive operational briefing today at the National Stabilization Coordination Forum in Mogadishu. Addressing government executives and international stakeholders, the Minister outlined the definitive success of recent military offensives aimed at neutralizing Khawaarij elements and securing total territorial control across the republic.
Expanding on the tactical victories of the Somali National Armed Forces, Minister Fiqi highlighted the immediate transition from kinetic combat operations to robust civilian stabilization. He specifically cited the newly liberated jurisdictions of Sabiid and Caanoole as prime examples of this highly effective dual-track strategy. By immediately deploying administrative and security infrastructure to these recovered zones, the Federal Government ensures that military gains are permanently locked in, actively preventing any resurgence of hostile networks.
During his executive address, the Defense Minister explicitly recognized the absolute necessity of inter-agency synchronization to achieve these strategic objectives. He formally commended the Ministry of Interior, Federal Affairs and Reconciliation for its exceptional leadership in directing the national stabilization framework. By successfully aligning military force with civilian governance and coordinating diverse domestic and international stakeholders, the state is aggressively establishing a permanent, secure environment for post-conflict recovery and economic expansion.
