This included full names, photographs, dates and places of birth, contact information, marital status, and home addresses, according to a notice issued by the U.S. Embassy in Mogadishu.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1201\" data-end=\"1451\">Foreign embassies, concerned about the scale of the breach, have privately warned the Somali government that they may no longer comply with the current E-Visa procedures, describing the system as structurally insecure and politically manipulated.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1453\" data-end=\"1490\">A Breach Larger Than Admitted<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1492\" data-end=\"1673\">While the U.S. Embassy did not officially confirm that its citizens\u2019 data was compromised, officials conceded that <em data-start=\"1607\" data-end=\"1671\">\u201cthose who applied for Somali E-Visas may have been affected.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1675\" data-end=\"1744\">Somali security sources, however, paint a far more chaotic picture, intelligence officers from at least five countries scrambled to exit Somalia, some were evacuated on short notice from Mogadishu International Airport, foreign missions reportedly advised their nationals working in sensitive roles to \u201cassume compromise.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2015\" data-end=\"2062\">Political Tensions Fuel System Collapse<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2064\" data-end=\"2399\">The breach comes amid worsening tensions between <a href=\"https:\/\/sahanpost.com\/en\/somalias-immigration-department-confirms-e-visa-system-breach-amid-growing-public-concern\/\">Somalia\u2019s Federal Government and its federal member states<\/a>. Puntland, Somaliland and Jubaland have openly clashed with Mogadishu over constitutional amendments and federal overreach, accusing the government of centralizing power, including control of E-Visa revenue, at the expense of state autonomy.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2401\" data-end=\"2741\">These tensions have trickled into the immigration system. Puntland and Somaliland have told travelers not to use the federal E-Visa, urging them instead to obtain visas on arrival. The conflicting directives have deeply fragmented the country\u2019s entry procedures, creating confusion at airports and exposing the system\u2019s vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2743\" data-end=\"2777\">Security Fears and Denials<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2779\" data-end=\"3116\">Compounding the crisis is Somalia\u2019s already fragile security environment. The country continues to battle Al-Shabaab insurgents, while ISIS elements remain active in Puntland. Analysts warn that any intelligence exposure could have dangerous operational consequences, including kidnappings, targeted attacks, or compromised missions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3118\" data-end=\"3439\">Somalia\u2019s Minister of Defence, Ahmed Moallim Fiqi, dismissed claims that foreign military or intelligence personnel were affected, calling the reports <em data-start=\"3270\" data-end=\"3331\">\u201cbaseless fabrications from enemies of Somalia\u2019s progress.\u201d<\/em> He insisted the breach was merely a <em data-start=\"3368\" data-end=\"3439\">\u201ccriminal cyberattack designed to discredit government institutions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3441\" data-end=\"3611\">But insiders say the atmosphere inside government ministries is tense, with officials unsure of the full extent of the breach or how deeply hackers penetrated the system.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"3613\" data-end=\"3663\">A System in Crisis, Citizens Pay the Price<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"3665\" data-end=\"3774\">The E-Visa failure has had broader consequences beyond intelligence circles. Ordinary travelers have faced, contradictory airport instructions, skyrocketing visa fees, double-charging in Garowe and Hargeisa, flight disruptions and safety concerns in Somali airspace.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3949\" data-end=\"4065\">Meanwhile, humanitarian conditions worsen as Somalia faces extreme weather, shortages, and reduced U.S. foreign aid.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4067\" data-end=\"4272\">For now, one thing is clear: the E-Visa breach has not only exposed travelers\u2019 data but has also laid bare Somalia\u2019s fractured political landscape, fragile institutions, and deepening crisis of governance.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4067\" data-end=\"4272\">info@sahanpost.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MOGADISHU (Sahan Post) \u2014 Somalia is facing one of the most alarming cyber breaches in its recent history after the exposure of sensitive data belonging to more than 35,000 E-Visa&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2418,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_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":""},"categories":[14,15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2416","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-editorial","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
