The United States conducted airstrikes on Islamic State (IS) targets in northern Somalia, following an order from President Donald Trump. The operation, which targeted a senior IS attack planner and other operatives, was conducted in the Golis Mountains on the Somali Peninsula. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed that the mission was coordinated with Somalia’s government, which strongly supported the strikes.
President Trump shared on Truth Social that the airstrikes destroyed caves where IS militants had been hiding, eliminating several terrorists without civilian casualties. Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, in a statement, expressed his gratitude for the U.S.’s continued support in combating terrorism, emphasizing the importance of cooperation between the two nations in ensuring regional stability and security.
The Pentagon’s initial assessment confirmed that multiple terrorists were killed in the operation, with no reports of civilian harm. The strikes demonstrate the U.S.’s ongoing commitment to dismantling terrorist networks in the region, particularly those posing threats to the U.S. and its allies.
