Five Irish soldiers will be hand-picked in the coming weeks to train up troops for reputedly the most dangerous country in the world.
The European Union has requested a team from the Defence Forces to help establish proper armed forces in Somalia in an attempt to bring some stability to the East African state.
The soldiers - who have yet to be formally selected - will be based in the less-deadly Uganda during a year-long mission to train around 2,000 Somali recruits.
