Hudun District (Somali: Degmada Xudun) is a historical district in the eastern Sool region of Somaliland. Its capital lies at Hudun. The border between Hudun District and Las Anod District goes through the town of Jidbaale, also called Jidbali, a town that lies in between the towns of Tuursubag to the north, and Saxa Gebogebo (Saha Gebogebo) to the south.[2] This was the site of the largest battle between Darawiish and colonial forces in 1904.[3]
