Issued January 14 2004 HIGHLIGHTS Issued January 14 2004 HIGHLIGHTS · Sool Plateau Update : Rains of low intensity and limited spatial coverage fell in the first week of December but did little to alleviate the current humanitarian crisis in Sool Plateau. Nutritional status surveys reflect the deteriorating food security situation of residents. An acute malnutrition rate of 18.9% (W/H<2 z-score or oedema) was found during the first round of Sool Plateau sentinel site surveil- lance exercise in November/December 2003. A UNICEF led mission in mid-December 2003 also recorded an equally high malnutri- tion rate in Sool Plateau of Sanaag (4,841 children screened). The rate was significantly higher in Sool Plateau of Sool Region (2,049 children were screened). Civil insecurity in the area is now threatening to disrupt humanitarian relief operations in the region. · Drought in Hawd of Todgheer : An inter-agency rapid assessment led by the FSAU found that the poor and lower levles of the middle wealth pastoral group are facing a high risk of food shortage, largely as a result of poor Gu 2003 and failed Deyr 2003 rains. Affected households will need to be closely monitored during the harsh, dry Jilaal season. For more information on the drought stricken region, see page 2. · Galgadud Region : UN-OCHA Somalia and FSAU carried out a low level mission to Galagdud (13-20 December 2003) to districts where people had been displaced following civil insecurity in the region. This diplacement, combined with a two month delay in the onset of the Deyr rains has undermined agricultural and livestock activities, increasing the risk of food insecurity. A Humanitarian Response Group (HRG) meeting to discuss the current crisis was held on 8 January 2004. For more information contact : calum. [email protected] · Civil Insecurity : Civil Insecurity continues to present a challenge to the people of Somalia and humanitarian organizations attempting to strengthen the livelihoods of the Somali people. As reported by IRIN at the end of December, militia from Puntland occupied Las Anod and other parts of Sanag region. The government of Somaliland has deployed troops to positions outside Aynabo. Also various incidents in Kismayo and Lower Juba suggest a worsening of civil insecurity, as does militia activity in El Wak town, Gedo Region, during December. · Somaliland Gu/Karan 2003 Crop Production : The total Gu/Karan 2003 crop production is very good and the highest recorded figure in post-war years. The Gu/Karan season produced 24,915 Mt of sorghum and 3,289 Mt of maize. Some of the reasons for this good production are very good Karan rains, improved and dressed seeds provided by CINS, land preparation on time which was enhanced by IFAD providing tractors on credit. For a copy of this report please contact the FSAU Field Team Manager : [email protected] · A series of FSAU field workshops in Galkayo and Garowe from January 13 –16 2004 are being held to assess the severity of reported pastoral stress in the areas of Western Mudug and south of Sool and implications on food security. The results will be presented at the HRG meeting on North Somalia (20 Jan) and the SACB FSRDC meeting (21 Jan). Summary of December Rainfall and Vegetation Performance · Figure 1 shows that moderate to heavy rain fell in most parts of southern and central Somalia during the first ten days of December (1st dekad). There was insignificant rainfall in the second and third dekads of December throughout Somalia so these images have not been shown. · In Figure 2 the NDVI satellite imagery (21-30 Dec 03) shows dense vegetation in Juba Valley, Gedo and Bay Regions. · Figure 3 shows that vegetation conditions in southern Somalia are very good compared to the long term average (going back to 1981). · However, vegetation and fodder conditions in the north and parts of central regions remain poor, compared to the long term average. The situation of pastoralists living in these areas remains of great concern. · The early December rains also improved vegetation conditions in Hiran and parts of Galgadud region where Deyr rainfall were initially poor. However, insecurity in Galgadud may keep pastoralists from taking Fig 1 : Rainfall Estimate in mm Fig 2 : Normalized Difference Fig 3 : Normalized Difference 1st Dekad (1-10 Dec 03) Vegetation Index. 21-30 Dec 03 Vegetation Index. 21-30 Dec 03 advantage of the improved grazing areas. · In southern Somalia, the improved (Actual Vegetation 21-30 Dec 03) (Compared to long term average) vegetative conditions will help moderate the normally harsh, dry Jilaal season beginning in January and ending in March. · The Deyr Crop Establishment exercise is taking place in southern Somalia. Information from the field suggests crop performance is normal, despite the late VEGETATION SCALE start to the Deyr season. Exceptions include parts of Bakol, Hiran and Cow- pea belt where insufficient rain fell. Deyr crop predictions will be issued in FSAU’s VEGETATION SCALE February Monthly Report.

  • Punishment on Stage
    Punishment on Stage -Application of Islamic Criminal Law by Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen- Michael Skjelderup Master’s Degree Thesis in History of Religion (60sp) Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages The Faculty of Humanities University of Oslo Autumn 2011 © Michael Skjelderup Autumn 2011 Punishment on Stage: Application of Islamic Criminal Law by Harakat al-Shabaab al- Mujahideen Michael Skjelderup http://www.duo.uio.no/ Trykk: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo II Executive summary Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen, usually referred to as al-Shabaab (“the youth”), is mostly known as a Somali terrorist group. But since the end of 2008 it has functioned as a state power in large parts of Southern and Central Somalia. In this study I sketch out the structure and function of the legal system of the group. Over the last three years they have developed an administrative structure and a legal system which is unprecedented in the Somali conflict, which has lasted for more than 20 years. In order to establish law and order in their territories al-Shabaab has applied their own version of sharī’a and issued strict religiously inspired decrees. The present study is based on information acquired through interviews with Somali refugees in Nairobi who have direct experiences with al-Shabaab’s judicial practice. It reveals that al-Shabaab’s application of criminal law follows the inherent logic of classical Islamic legal doctrines on several points. However, the al-Shabaab courts tend to overlook many of the strict requirements regarding evidence and procedure which was outlined by the medieval Muslim scholars in order to humanize Islamic law.

    SOMALIA Seasonal Monitor June 05, 2021 FEWS NET publishes a Seasonal Monitor for Somalia every 10 days (dekad) through the end of the current April to June gu rainy season. The purpose of this document is to provide updated information on the progress of the gu season to facilitate contingency and response planning. This Somalia Seasonal Monitor is valid through June 10, 2021, and is produced in collaboration with U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the Food Security and Nutrition Analysis Unit (FSNAU) Somalia, the Somali Water and Land Information System (SWALIM), a number of other agencies, and several Somali non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Most of Somalia continued to receive little to no rainfall through the end of May Continuing a trend of low rainfall since mid-May, field reports indicate that most of Somalia received little or no rainfall during the May 21-31 period. According to preliminary CHIRPS remote sensing data, however, most of the country received less than 10 mm (mm) of rain, while localized areas in Juba, Bay, Shabelle, and Nugaal regions received 10 to 25 mm of rain. (Figure 1). Compared to the long-term average (1981-2018), total precipitation in most of northwestern and southern Somalia was 10-25 mm below average. In the rest of the country, rainfall totals were climatologically average (Figure 2). According to the most recent FAO SWALIM river station gauge data, water levels at key monitoring points along the Shabelle and Juba rivers have significantly receded and are currently well below moderate flood risk levels. The decline is attributed to low rainfall over both Somalia’s riverine areas and the upstream river catchments in the Ethiopian highlands.
