Mogadishu (KAAB TV) – The Governor of Banadir Region and Mayor of Mogadishu, Hassan Mohamed Hussein Muungab, has extended support to the local defense forces, known as the Maawisley, in the Hiraan region by providing a shipment of medical supplies.
Governor Muungab personally handed over the consignment, which included essential medicines and first aid kits, to representatives from Hiraan. The aim is to ensure the Banadir Regional Government’s support reaches the leadership of the Maawisley militia and bolsters their medical capacity in the fight against the Al-Shabaab militant group.
Speaking at the handover ceremony, Governor Muungab emphasized the critical role of the Banadir administration in standing by the Maawisley and all those fighting against extremist groups such as Al-Shabaab and Daesh.
“I stand with our brothers in Hiraan who are courageously fighting Al-Shabaab,” said the Governor. “Other communities in similar circumstances should also take initiative and follow this example.”
The medical aid is expected to reach the Maawisley forces in the coming days and is part of broader efforts by the Somali government to reinforce the capacity of local forces resisting militant threats across the country.
