The United Arab Emirates and Egypt have cut diplomatic ties to Qatar.

The two countries have joined Saudi Arabia and Bahrain in cutting ties to Qatar amid a growing Arab diplomatic dispute with the small, gas-rich nation.

Both the UAE and Egypt made the announcement on their state-run news agencies within minutes of each other.

Qatari officials did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The dispute between Qatar and the Gulf’s Arab countries started over a purported hack of Qatar’s state-run news agency. It has spiraled since.

Saudi Arabia made the announcement via its state-run Saudi Press Agency early Monday. It appeared to be timed in concert with an earlier announcement by Bahrain similarly cutting ties.

Qatar had no immediate comment.

Bahrain’s Foreign Affairs Ministry issued a statement early Monday saying it would withdraw its diplomatic mission from the Qatari capital of Doha within 48 hours and that all Qatari diplomats should leave Bahrain within the same period.

The ministry’s statement said Qatari citizens needed to leave Bahrain within two weeks and that air and sea traffic between the two countries would be halted. It wasn’t immediately clear how that would affect Qatar Airways, one of the region’s major long-haul carriers.

Bahrain blamed Qatar’s “media incitement, support for armed terrorist activities and funding linked to Iranian groups to carry out sabotage and spreading chaos in Bahrain” for its decision.

The Cheesemongerer and his paper government are in a tight position. Both sides have interests in Somalia and whichever side he ultimately picks will antagonize the opposing party.

If he sides with the Arab League, he loses support from Qatar which is backed by Turkey. Say goodbye to all that Turkish investment in Xamar

If he sides with Qatar/Turkey, he loses support from Saudi Arabia, the country that just doled out $4 billion in aid to the SFG. That will certainly piss off the Khaleejis, and they will certainly punish Somalia either through a proxy war, or with economic and political strangulation. Somaliland, now becoming a closer ally with the UAE, might just get that ictiraaf to spite Somalia

It makes more sense for the cheeseman to side with the Arabs since he has more to lose by cutting ties with them. But seeing how closely aligned this current government is with Qatar (Farmaajo was backed by Qatar during his election campaign; newly appointed chief of staff Fahad Yaasin was chosen based on his ties with Qatar), Farmaajo might just take the biggest L Somalia has ever seen
