Tirokoob is an analytical project, not a news portal. Our procedure is to collect and reconcile every available, distinct report about each incident. For larger events, stories may run into the dozens and continue to emerge for days or weeks. This, and the inexorable rise in daily violent incidents, means that there is a considerable gap between the initial reporting of events and their first appearance in the Tirokoob database.
However, we obtain an early impression of events within about 48 hours of first reports. This page provides our news gatherer's account of such recent events, but please keep in mind that these are not our final database entries. Rather, they should be considered an early update on civilian casualties.

We need you
I would be most grateful if you give us for any information, personal stories and photographs of these who have been victimized by somalis or foreign invaders in Somalia. It would be sad if we allowed the history of our people’s unrecorded.
Remember more than 21000 Somalis have been killed in fighting in 2007 only, 1.5 million people has been displaced in their own homeland and more than half million are sheltering other countries in the region.
If you have information and photos of any incidents about our people in Somalia, We would like to see your contribution. So please contact us through the email.
