A Somali freelance journalist was shot dead on Monday night by unknown gunmen in the town of Galkayo in the central Mudug region.
Local authorities have confirmed the murder of Jamal Farah Aden in the divided town and said the police have launched an investigation into the killing.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the journalist’s killing.
It marks the country’s first murder case in 2021 but comes months after an Al-Shabaab bomber killed at least 16 people outside a soccer pitch in the southern part of the city.
