Somalia condemns attack on power station serving Prophet’s Mosque

Somalia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation has strongly condemned an attack on an electricity distribution station supplying the Prophet’s Mosque in Medina.

The ministry said targeting civilian infrastructure serving the mosque violated the sanctity of holy sites.

Its condemnation focused on the station’s role in providing electricity to the mosque, linking the attack on the power facility to the protection of religious sites.

The supplied statement did not identify those responsible or specify when the attack occurred. It also gave no details about damage or whether electricity supplies to the mosque were disrupted.
