The press release signed by the Minister of Information of Puntland, Mohamud Ayid Dirir, said: "We remove the statement made by the Deputy Minister of Information to the Telegraph newspaper on February 8, 2025. The statement he made is only his personal opinion and does not represent the position of the Puntland State Government."
It was also added in the press release from the Ministry of Information of Puntland that Puntland respects the rights of Palestinians to live in peace and prosperity in their land.
Puntland's Ministry of Information noted that Somalia has a historic promise to support Palestine as it has membership in the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).
The statement made by the Ministry of Information comes a day after Yaqub Mohamed Abdullahi, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Information of Puntland, told The Telegraph newspaper from the UK that the Puntland State Government is happy to host the refugees from Gaza, as long as they come on their own accord.
