The SEMG’s preliminary assessment is that these reports were incorrect and that the alleged deliveries to Baidoa probably did not take place….”
Eritrea has requested a full, fair and independent investigation to be conducted by the UNSC, to the above mentioned allegation and all other unfounded related accusations.
