Khatumo Halal Travel Guide

Khatumo(Somali: Khaatuumo, Arabic: ولاية خاتمة), officially the Khatumo State of Somalia (Somali: Maamul Goboleedka Khaatuumo ee Soomaaliya), is a region in northwestern Somalia, centred on Las Anod in the Sool province. It is viewed by government officials as a successor state of the early 20th century Dervish state. Various Dhulbahante clan leaders and local governing officials have given Khatumo an assortment of names during various periods since the government collapsed in 1991. In the 1990s, it began as the Northern Somali Unionist Movement (NSUM), subsequently it was named SSC State, which stands for Sool, Sanaag and Cayn State, In 2008, it was named Northland State, while in 2012, a collection of local representatives, clan leaders and elders agreed upon the name Khatumo as well as unity with Somalia. Khatumo is bordered by Puntland to its east and Somaliland to its west and Ethiopia in the south. Unlike neighbouring Somaliland, Khatumo does not seek to secede from Somalia. The name "Khatumo" is Arabic for "positive conclusion".
