- Advertisement -Mogadishu, Somalia — The United Nations Support Office in Somalia (UNSOS) has opened a tender seeking licensed auctioneers to sell off a wide range of its vehicles, generators and other equipment in Somalia, a notice published on the UN Global Marketplace shows. Under the terms of the tender, UNSOS is looking to establish a local contract for the “commercial sale” of UN-owned property. The auction notice does not link the sale to the funding dispute. Somalia has fought al-Shabab for nearly two decades, and the group still holds sway over parts of the country. Leaders of AUSSOM troop-contributing nations have warned that a premature drawdown in support could open a security vacuum.
