Rotation of the African Union force in Somalia was delayed by at least one month due to floods, as troops remained marooned in military bases that they were meant to leave more than four weeks ago after El Niño-induced rains submerged roads, airstrips and cut off major supply routes of the Horn of Africa country.
The Troop Contributing Countries (TCCs) to the African Union Transition Mission in Somalia (Atmis) expected to receive their forces rotating from the mission at the end of December 2023 alongside soldiers that were in phase two of the drawdown of 3,000 troops.
But logistical issues forced the troops to remain on the ground – extending their stay in Somalia by another month – while TCCs could not deploy new units to the mission.
“There were some delays in meeting the December 31, 2023 timeline, primarily due to the floods caused by El-Nino rains,” says Gifty Bingley, Atmis spokesperson.
“As of January 25, 2024, Phase Two is complete, with seven Forward Operating Bases (FOBs) successfully handed over and two collapsed.”
