The US leader has ordered airstrikes in Somalia as a “message” to Islamic State terrorists and other adversaries. President Donald Trump has ordered precision airstrikes in Somalia targeting an unnamed senior Islamic State (IS) attack planner and other militants, according to announcements on Truth Social and X accounts. The airstrikes were carried out in the Golis Mountains of Somalia’s Bari region, allegedly resulting in the destruction of terrorist hideouts and the deaths of multiple militants. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth stated that, according to the Pentagon’s “initial assessment,” no civilians were harmed in the operation. “These killers, who we found hiding in caves, threatened the United States and our allies,” Trump wrote on Saturday. “The strikes destroyed the caves they lived in and killed many terrorists without, in any way, harming civilians.”
