Harardhere (Шаблон:Lang-ar, Шаблон:Lang-so) is a historic town in the Mudug province of Somalia. It is situated in the autonomous Galmudug state and serves as the capital of the Harardhere District.

History

For most of its history, Harardhere was a historic town that was included in many Somali sultanates like the Ajuran Sultanate and Hiraab Imamate, who ruled over the town since the 13th century. After Somalia gained independence, the town developed and gave birth to many prominent Somali politicians and military officials like Abdirashid Ali Shermarke the second president of Somalia, Maj. Gen Daud Abdulle Hirsi the first Commander of the Somali Armed Forces, Maj. Gen Mohamed Abshir Muse First Commander of the Somali Police Force and Maj. Gen Salaad Gabeyre Kediye. Former TNG Prime Minister Mohamed Abdi Yusuf was also born in the district with deep familial clan ties in Harardhere. In the 1960s, the first MP elected from the district was Mohamed Said Gentleman, a famous Habargidir Saruur tycoon with ties to Hodan district, Mogadishu.

The town was controlled by the al-Qaeda-linked terrorist group al-Shabaab from at least 2012 to 2023. In 2018, a US airstrike killed 60 al-Shabaab fighters at a training camp in a rural area outside the town.[1] On 16 January 2023, the town was recaptured by the Somali Armed Forces.

Demographics

As of 2005, Harardhere had a population of around 65,543 inhabitants. As with most of Galmudug, it is primarily inhabited by Somalis from the Hiraab sub-clan of the Hawiye.[2][3]
