I’d support the restoration of @Duja’s original mapping. Clearly this is still a disputed part of the world but I think the previous relation seems to be valid enough.
It’s difficult to find internationally recognised sources/boundaries, so just going by Wikipedia:
- The Khatumo State page graphic is different to the now-deleted OSM relation
- The current graphic on Somalia’s states and regions is the same as the now-deleted relation
- The Somaliland regions and districts graphic includes the Khatumo State area (implying it’s part of Somaliland and not an autonomous state of Somalia).
(Obviously Wikipedia is not definitive and the graphics designers may well have used OSM data to create them!).
