UAE Training Camp “Looted” As Emirates Trainers Leave

Nine UAE military trainers on Monday left Mogadishu for Abu Dhabi a few hours after the Gulf State announced that it had disbanded military assistance.

The trainers had left military equipment used in the training of Somalia National Army soldiers in Mogadishu.

Local media reported SNA soldiers were seen “looting” the equipment left by the trainers.

Radio Dalsan severally contacted the SNA commander of the UAE trained soldiers Ali Adan but our calls remained unanswered .
