Editing Jubaland (section)

== Kismayo concentration camp ==

During the Tanoan period, a concentration camp was established near [[Kismayo]]. The camp held political detainees, suspected resistance members, captured fighters, civilians accused of aiding opposition groups, and people selected for forced labor. Prisoners were used for port labor, road construction, storage work, agricultural labor, and military support tasks connected to [[SS-Großabschnitt Afrika]].

The camp became one of the main detention sites in Jubaland. Conditions included overcrowding, forced labor, restricted food supply, beatings, disease, and executions by shooting. Some detainees were transferred to other camps. These transfers included movement through the [[Annobón transit camp]], where prisoners were processed before final transport to [[Argentina]] for harsher forced labor assignments.

The camp remained active until the collapse of Tanoan authority in 2024. After the fall, the transitional government began documenting prisoner records, burial sites, guard rosters, labor assignments, and transfers connected to the facility.
