UN ENVOY CALLS FOR IMMEDIATE HALT TO FIGHTING IN SOMALI PORT CITY OF KISMAYO
New York, Jun 29 2013 12:00PM
The top United Nations envoy in Somalia on Saturday called for an
immediate halt to armed clashes that have flared up again in the
southern port city of Kismayo among groups claiming leadership over
the "Jubaland" regional administration.

Reports suggest serious clashes over the last days have led to a
number of casualties, including civilian deaths, according to a
statement issued by the UN Assistance Mission in Somalia (UNSOM).

"At the same time as this new fighting has broken out, contacts are
underway to put together an inclusive process to defuse tensions. The
details are being worked out," said Nicholas Kay, the
Secretary-General's Special Representative and head of UNSOM.

"This is not the time to engage in violence which will entrench
positions and make it all the harder to achieve a settlement and begin
reconciliation," he added.

"I call on all parties to refrain from any action which could be seen
as a provocation, and call for an immediate cessation of hostilities."

Following clashes earlier this month in Kismayo, the Security Council
called on all parties to refrain from any action which may threaten
peace and stability in the Juba regions and to engage with the Somali
Government in a constructive manner to achieve a peaceful resolution
to the current crisis.

Council members also welcomed the Government's commitment to lead
reconciliation efforts in the Juba regions, and underlined the
availability of the Secretary-General's Special Representative to
assist in peacefully resolving the situation.

UNSOM, which began operations at the beginning of this month, is
tasked by the Council with supporting the Horn of Africa nation as it
seeks to build on hard-won gains achieved last year and emerge from
over two decades of strife.
