Somali police force to conduct counter-terrorism training in Turkey

The Somali Police Force is conducting counter-terrorism training in Izmir, Turkey. The troops are said to have been training for months and include various units of special training in the mountainous areas of Izmir.

The Turkish government has been actively involved in the training of the Armed Forces in recent years and has trained hundreds of soldiers in the country, both police and national forces.

Turkey opened a state-of-the-art military training academy in Mogadishu to train thousands of Somali soldiers as the country rebuilds its national army.
