North Gaalkacyo is a dangerous/lawless place. I pray hard when crossing the greenline and try to get the fock out of there.
Fortunately, the Suufi Southside is not affected by this violence. The few numbers of ikhwaan and other Shabab leaning radicals is the main reason behind the stability of the Southside.
Between the aano qabiil war between the Ciise Maxmud and Cumar Maxmud which has lead to a massive displacement of Cumar Maxmud men from Garowe and Ciise Maxmud from Galkayo, things are quite unsafe in Puntland.
I am quite surprised that the Puntlanders are not blaming Galmudug and the South for their civil conflict. The tendency to blame the South for all violence was a cheap excuse which prevented the Puntland authority from tackling the extremist threat at home.
Bottomline: Puntland is on the verge of full blown civil war. For those who rejoice, remember that when your neighbor's home is on fire, its a matter of time before the fire burns your home.
