Maakhir (Template:Lang-so, Template:Lang-ar Mākhir), officially the Maakhir State of Somalia (Template:Lang-so; Template:Lang-ar Wilāyah Mākhir al-Ṣūmāl) and also known as the Sultanate of Maakhir, is an autonomous administration in the Sanaag region of eastern Somalia.[1][2]
History
Maakhir is the only Somali territory to never be ruled by a foreign power. Until 1949, the northern region of Somalia (including Maakhir, which was fully autonomous) was known to the Western world as British Somaliland.[1]
Military operations
In February 2008, Somaliland armed forces laid siege to Hadaftimo, causing a state of emergency before the troops withdrew into Erigavo. Maakhir responded by increasing its military presence in Erigavo.[3]
On 9 July, hostilities were reignited when Somaliland troops invaded and occupied Laas Qoray port, under the pretense of rescuing German citizens who were allegedly being held hostage by pirates in the area.[4]
