Medishe is a heritage site just north of Jidali in Sanaag, Somalia. It was one of the first places bombed in African history, during raids against the Sayyidka. Sayyidka led a Dhulbahante state called Darawiish, a successor state to the Dhulbahante garadship. Medishe is a place settled by the Ugaadhyahan subtribe of Dhulbahante.[1]
