Mogadishu, once synonymous with daily terrorist violence, is a different city today.
Between May 2022 and September 2025, terrorist-related incidents in the capital have decreased by 85%.
A specialized military-police unit was deployed to protect the capital, coupled with tighter arms regulations.
Thousands of new CCTV cameras are protecting our streets and markets, urban operations are now based on intelligence, and all vehicles in the capital are digitally registered and monitored.
These measures, among others, have made the streets safer for families, citizens, and investors. A city long defined by fear is boldly reclaiming ordinary life.
Scenes of tourists experiencing Mogadishu streets mid-night and foreign investors seeking opportunities is the new normal.
