The Federal Government of Somalia (FGS) has been privately telling international partners that it is assisting Puntland in its offensive against the Islamic State in Somalia (IS-Somalia aka ISIS), a claim that has been categorically rejected by Puntland officials. The assertion has raised serious questions about the FGS’s motives and intentions, with some observers suggesting that Mogadishu may be attempting to deceive the international community in order to gain funding for itself, rather than providing genuine support to Puntland’s efforts https://thesomalidigest.com/fgs-misleads-international-partners-over-support-for-puntland-isis-war/
