Guriel (, , جوري عيل ) is the second largest city in the central Galguduud region of Somalia located in Galmudug state. The city serves as the capital of the Guriel District.

== Conflict == This city has been in conflict since the fall of the former Somali government in 1991. In 2006, the Islamic Courts Union (ICU), a militant Islamic organization, took control of most of central Somalia. Transitional Federal Government of Somalia, supported by Ethiopia, defeated the ICU in late 2006.
