The&nbsp;U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM<strong>)<\/strong>&nbsp;conducted an air strike at a location near Badhan, it said the strike targeted an al Shabaab arms dealer but did not identify the individual. Local authorities said the timing and location of the strike matched Omar\u2019s death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Governor Said Ahmed Jama\u00a0described Omar as \u201c<em>a well-known community figure<\/em>\u201d and said the regional administration was awaiting further information about the strike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brigadier Abdillahi Omar Anshuur, commander of the Puntland Dervish Forces\u2019 9th Division, Badhan Camp, said Omar was \u201c<em>a peacemaker\u201d<\/em> and denied any link between him and armed groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<em>This was an unexpected and shocking incident<\/em>,\u201d said\u00a0Faisal Abdillahi, the regional intelligence chief. \u201c<em>The deceased was a prominent figure who worked closely with the community<\/em>.\u201d adding his speach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Colonel Aden Ahmed Ali, the regional police commander, who was one of the first officials visited the site of strike and identified Omar\u2019s remains an a lone traveler ,said local authorities sought clarification from Washington. \u201c<em>Omar was not on any wanted list, and we the whole community both leaders and civillians need justice and transparency<\/em>,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ali Abdullahi the brother of slain elder and community members of Peacemaker Omar erected a monument to honor his name. Ali also called Human Rights Activists and International Communities to hold responsible for those who behind the killing \u201c<em>Omar was well known traditional leader, a registered member of council of traditional members of Puntland and Somaliland, he worked for peace through out his life<\/em>\u201d Told the reporters in the opening ceremony of the monument.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201d<em>We call all the human rights advocates, international organizations and observers to intervene this horrific killing of an innocent person, we need justice and transparency till we find out<\/em>\u201c Ali added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Federal Government of Somalia and Regional authority of Puntland publicly used to claim the credibility of US air strikes in these region, competing to the news headlines before even AFRICOM but they both refrained from this strike making the US AFRICOM the only body that admitted they conducted an air strike where Elder Omar killed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><br>AFRICOM has conducted air operations in Somalia for nearly two decades, primarily targeting al Shabaab and Islamic State fighters. Human rights groups have at times raised concerns about civilian casualties and the transparency of such operations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sahan Post News Desk <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"624\" data-id=\"1427\" src=\"https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4414-1024x624.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4414-1024x624.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4414-300x183.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4414-768x468.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4414.jpeg 1320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"827\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"1429\" src=\"https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4416-827x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4416-827x1024.jpeg 827w, https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4416-242x300.jpeg 242w, https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4416-768x951.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4416-1240x1536.jpeg 1240w, https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4416.jpeg 1320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 827px) 100vw, 827px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"660\" height=\"352\" data-id=\"1426\" src=\"https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4413.jpeg\" alt=\"Ali Abdullahi, the slain Omars brother\" class=\"wp-image-1426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4413.jpeg 660w, https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/IMG_4413-300x160.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"1347\" src=\"https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/ehelada.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/ehelada.webp 1024w, https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/ehelada-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/ehelada-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BADHAN, Somalia, Oct 11 (SaganPost):- Puntland officials in Sanaag region have denied a U.S. claim that a man killed in a September airstrike was an al Shabaab arms dealer, saying&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1421,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[14,27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1419","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-editorial","category-human-rights"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
