The African Union and its Member-States in keeping with the principles and values of pan-Africanism and African Solidarity, and within the Framework of the African Solidarity Initiative (Africa Helping Africa), launched in February 2014 to support countries in crises, including in natural/ environmental and man-made disasters and humanitarian situations; have mobilised in support of the Government and the people of the Federal Republic of Somalia during this very difficult time.
Following the recent terrorist attack in Mogadishu on Saturday 14th October 2017, the African Union through its peace enforcement mission in Somalia (AMISOM) has indicated its full availability to completely assist the Federal Government and the people of Somalia within its military, police and civilian capabilities.
