The areas that were hit by the shelling this morning include the houses of local traditional elders who have already declared that they support the unity of Somalia.
The communities living in the Sool, Sanaag and Ayn regions said that they are not part of the Somaliland administration. Somaliland, which has claimed independence from Somalia since 1991, but has never been recognized internationally.
