Somaliland-based Jamhuuriya newspaper has reported that a force of 1,000-strong Ethiopian troops has entered parts of Awdal region in northwestern Somalia (Somaliland) to conduct military search operations in the mountain range.

Watch Somalilanders spin it like "they're only here cuz we allow it, since we never specifically told them they're not allowed to barge into our territory unannounced whenever they want".

It'll be interesting to see what President Vaginaanyo says about this.

The chat-eating fockers know that they are no match to hardened ONFL fighters....I can't believe that they have to call for Ethiopians for supposedly 200 hundred fighters...And guess what it is not even Ethiopian troops, it is the so-called Somali State government Lew Police forces...

[paidmonk]

Somaliland could be forgiven for the Buuhoodle incident in their backyard since they don't have authority in the area, but their militias need to start carrying out security operations on their own instead of relying on Ethiopians to only turn things upside down for villagers.

my first question is what the fok are ogadeen doing in somaliland?

[HooBariiska]

major somaliland website didnt report any ethiopean crossing, the bbc didnt report it, so we are supposed to believe some dhabayaco website

[Oxidant]

Has this militia group been identify beyond any reasonable doubt? Is 100% sure is ONLF?

If so, why did they use South Somalia to get to the Ogaden instead? Don't Ogaden control Kismaayo?

Ogaden doesn't control kismaayo...Kismaayo is controlled by hardcore bastards who hate ONLF more than any other group in Somalia including the TFG. They hate ONLF because ONLF is a legitimate entity fighting for a legitimate cause; freedom for their land and people.

The border between Somaliland and Ethiopia is very arbitrary and there are no clear demarcations. This is pure speculation.
