Many of the Isaaq soldiers in the government army had meanwhile defected to the SNM. The guerrilla force was able to maintain its position in the rural areas which it largely controlled until its final victory in 1991. However, the Gadabursi living in the West of the region continued to fight on Barre's side. In 1989, a Dolbahunte-based Somali United Liberation Front and the Gadabursi-based Somali Democratic Alliance (SDA) were formed. Neither took part in the overthrow of the Barre regime. Members of the Issa clan founded the USF. An increasing number of these armed groups were formed across Somalia as the war escalated.
The leadership of the SNM, SPM and USC met on 6 August 1990 in Ethiopia and agreed to set up a joint front against Barre13. As a result, the SNM supplied weapons to General Mohamed Farah Aideed's USC. His forces needed this support because they were only equivalent to one quarter of the forces which were at the disposal of his enemies in the South of Somalia. Aideed took the war to Mogadishu on 3 December 1990 while Barre's forces were occupied in fighting the SNM in the North.
Barre himself fled the capital on 26 January 1991. In early 1991, the SNM captured the cities of Burco (see Box 7), Berbera and Hargeisa. As a result the government forces fled through the Ogaden to Southern Somalia, while the Isaaq from the South were heading in the other direction, trying to reach Somaliland.
Ali Mahdi was appointed interim president by a "Manifesto Group" after the conquest of Mogadishu. However, the SNM were not consulted before this step, and neither did the other USC-factions support it. The SNM itself used a "Grand Conference of the Northern Peoples" in Burco on 18 May 1991 to announce the independence of Somaliland. Similarly, it did not consult the other political factions of Somalia about this step.
