According to a report by the Inter-NGO Committee for Somalia (April 1991),

One group which was very vulnerable in the south does not appear to be so in the north. These are the families from Darod group of clans who are still living in the northern towns. These are small in number and many of those who have remained are linked to Isaaq families by marriage. However further attention needs to be given to this group, and others such as Hawiye in Hargeisa (4).

Further information on this subject is currently unavailable to the IRBDC in Ottawa.
