Somalia's semi-autonomous state of Puntland executed 10 fighters from Islamist militant group al Shabaab on August 17, 2024, the region's police said in a statement.
The executions, by firing squad, in Galkayo in the state's Mudug region, followed a trial of the fighters in a military court where they were sentenced to death for involvement in assassinations and bombings in several locations in Galkayo.
