Somali-trained soldiers were detained in Ethiopia as officials work on their return process, per hiiraan.com.

The move comes amid ongoing tensions in the region, with #Laftagareen loyalists mobilizing near Baidoa, deepening the crisis in Somalia's South West, Addis Standard reports.

Meanwhile, the leader of Somalia’s South West State seeks Ethiopian military support as conflict continues in Baidoa, where federal forces have been active since March, according to Facebook news outlet.
