Doolow sits in south-western Somalia on the Ethiopian border by the Dawa river, in a region shaped by years of drought and displacement. Its basic airstrip is used mainly by aid agencies, the United Nations and charter operators; there are no scheduled flights, no cargo terminal, no cold chain and no customs post. Commercial air freight for Somalia routes through Mogadishu (MGQ), with Addis Ababa (ADD) as the regional alternative, from where relief supplies continue by truck or light aircraft.
