Hadaftimo is an old town.[4] During the British Somaliland, four settlements were identified in the vicinity: Buraan in the Sool Plateau, El Dahir, Xubeera, Hadaftimo in the Gebi Valley.[5]

Around 1990, the Somali National Movement attacked Hadaftimo, a home of the Warsangeli clan, causing a large number of refugees. However, this attack was later condemned by Somali National Movement leaders.[6]

In mid-1992, an Islamist militant group Al-Itihaad al-Islamiya (AIAI) moved into the Sanaag region, and the Warsangali clan held a meeting in Hadaftimo and resolved to unify Somalia and prevent the AIAI from entering.[7]

According to a report in 1993, Hadaftimo had a population of 4,000 and only one source of drinking water.[8] There are six elementary schools with a total of 260 students.[8]: 32  Hadaftimo along with Erigavo, Badhan, Dhahar, El Afweyn, Las Khorey, Garadag and Maydh are listed as major population centers of Earstern Sanaag.[8]: 7

In June 2019, the Somaliland army deployed armored vehicles in Sool and Sanaag regions, including Hadaftimo. [16] In August, a battle broke out between the Somaliland and Puntland armies in Hadaftimo. It was the first full-scale battle in about two years.[17]
