The US and Somalia's semi-autonomous Puntland region have signed a security agreement. It will allow Washington to expand its military base in the port city of Bosaso. Puntland President Said Abdullahi Deni and US Major General Claude Tudor Jr., commander of US Special Operations Command Africa, signed the deal. Bosaso has become an increasingly important hub for operations targeting the Islamic State group's presence in northern Somalia's Cal Miskaad mountains. The agreement also strengthens maritime security along the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden — key global shipping routes. It comes as the political rift between Puntland and Somalia's federal government deepens, with Puntland increasingly asserting its autonomous authority to negotiate directly with foreign powers.
