Dhahar is a town in the eastern Sanaag region, and the capital of the Dhahar District. Reuters reports Dhahar as a Puntland town in 2021, but also reports how it condemns President Puntland and supports President Somalia. [3] Somali Broadcasting Corporation reports in 2019 that Dhahar is a town effectively controlled by Somaliland.[4][verification needed] One Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust, an NHS Foundation Trust in England, researcher describes Dhahar as a district in Puntland in 2014.[5]
