Garowe Online

Garowe Online is an independent bilingual news website founded in 2004[1] and is owned by Garowe News Group, which also owns Radio Garowe. The organisation is based in Garowe, the capital of Puntland state of Somalia.

The site mainly provides news about Somalia, Horn of Africa, Africa and, once in a while, from around the world. It focuses on security, politics and humanitarian affairs. As Somalia doesn't have a reliable daily newspaper[2], owing to its decades of conflict, Garowe Online is among the main sources of news for the public in Somalia as well as the diaspora.[3] The website publishes news in both Somali language and English.
