Reuters, citing diplomatic and Somali government sources, says that two Egyptian military planes carrying weapons and ammunition landed at Aden Adde International Airport in Mogadishu on Tuesday morning. Abdi Ismail Samatar, professor at the University of Minnesota and a senator in the Somali parliament, tells VOA’s Douglas Mpuga, if these tensions are not resolved, then war is likely
