Hudun (Template:Langx) is a historical town in the northern Sool, region of Somalia,[2] and the seat of the Hudun District.[3] Khatumo has effectively controlled there since around 2023.[citation needed]

Overview

Located in north west Somalia, Hudun lies 59 kilometres north by road from the provincial capital of Las Anod.[4]

Education

According to the Ministry of National Planning and Development in Somaliland, there are 9 primary schools and 1 secondary school in the Hudun District.[5]

History

On February 15, 1960, before Somaliland's independence, the first democratic elections were held in British Somaliland, and Ibrahim Eid was selected as the representative from Hudun.[6]

The Somaliland government did not hold polls here during the 2005 Somaliland parliamentary election, citing Hudun as a disputed territory.[7]

In March 2012, the militant group Al-Shabaab near Hudun was exterminated by Somali Federal Army and Ethiopian Army.[8]

In November 2012, the president of Khatumo State declared victory in the battle against the Somaliland army in Hudun.[9]

In January 2013, Khatumo militia based in southern Hudun were defeated and displaced by Somaliland forces.[10] The captured militia were imprisoned in Burao.[11]

In August 2017, the Somaliland government held a voting process for national elections in Hudun, which was opposed by Hudun residents as belonging to Puntland, and a clash took place between the Somaliland army and local forces in Hudun.[12]

In May 2021, voter turnout in Hudun and other Dhulbahante clan-inhabited areas in the Somaliland parliamentary election was significantly higher than in the previous election in 2005.[13]

Notable residents

Demographics

The City of Hudun is primarily populated by the Dhulbahante clan, with the Naleye Ahmed - Ugadhyahan sub-lineages of the Mohamoud Garad branch of the Dhulbahante clan are well-represented.[14]
