Eeley Massacre was the 1985 mass killing in a small village at the border between Galgaduud region of the Somali Republic and the Somali region in Ethiopia---just 30 km north of Abud-waq district.

Forty herdsmen from the village were rounded up and then thrown in a pool where they were indiscriminately killed by the militant wing of SSDF (the Somali Salvation Democratic Front), a Somali faction headed by the former TFG president Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed. SSDF were fighting against Barre's regime at that time.

These innocent herdsmen were killed for only they belonged to the same clan of Somalia's former president Mohamed Siad Barre. They were neither soldiers nor agents for Barre's regime; they were just civilians looking after their herds.

Eeley Massacre is not the only one, but there were other massacres took place in Somalia in the last 30 years. These massacres were committed by the Somali regimes, Ethiopian regimes, and the Somali warlord factions (SNM, SSDF, USC, SPM, SNF,...) between 1980 to present.
