The Front
editThe FLCS was established in 1960 by Mahamoud Harbi. Its founding president was Adan Abdulle.[1] FLCS began armed activities outside Djibouti in 1968. From May 1969, its general secretary is Aden Robleh Awaleh. In January 1970 the Front claimed an attack on the Palm in Zinc, a bar in Djibouti City. In 1975 FLCS removes the ambassador of France in Somalia, Jean Guery, to be exchanged against two activists of the Front,[2] which Omar Osman Rabeh. In December 1975, he claimed a failed attack against Ali Aref Bourhan. In February 1976, the FLCS claims the hijacking of a school bus, which ends with the death of the hostage-takers and two children. The organization mainly got its support from the Issa clan.[3] Abdourahman Ahmed Hassan, also known as Gaboode, was made the Secretary General in 1966 after Being Sentance to a two-year prison sentence.
