US airstrike kills 13 Al-Shabaab militants in Somalia
[Garowe] In support of counterterrorism in Somalia, the United States military continued their unsolicited support to the federal republic of Somalia, waging yet another ... KABOOM!... in the Horn of Africa nation, just a week after a similar target against al-Shabaab ...... an Islamic infestation centering on Somalia attempting to metastasize into Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and similar places, all of which have enough problems without them... Last week, the US Africa Command announced an airstrike against the al-Shabaab which left four turbans dead, in what came just days after Washington pledged to help the country effectively fight the turbans who control large swathes of rural central and southern Somalia. State media reported a Sunday airstrike in the Hiraan region of Somalia, a region that has been persistently under the al-Shabaab attacks. Previously, the federal government of Somalia has reported dozens of deaths in the region mainly engineered by al-Shabaab Death Eaters. According to the media, the airstrike had initially left two turbans dead and several hideouts destroyed. However, it's easy to be generous with someone else's money... state media later confirmed that over 13 turbans were killed in Sunday's 2 pm local time airstrike which targeted the Death Eaters. "Today around 2 PM local time, two Alshabab bad boyz were potted and their hideouts were destroyed in US airstrike to support the Somali National Army’s counterterrorism operations in Hiiraan region," state media noted in a tweet without many details. "The corpse count of Alshabab Death Eaters who were killed in Sunday’s airstrike in Hiran region has reached 13 terrorists, officials have confirmed to State Media, " the Somali National TV further reported, in one of the greatest crackdowns against the turbans this year. The US recently deployed over 500 elite soldiers to the country over a year after their exit, and their presence has been ushered in with a series of airstrikes against the Death Eaters. Former US President Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... had withdrawn US troops from Somalia. But after assessment, President Joe The Big GuyBiden  ...46th president of the U.S., father of Hunter, close friend of an imaginary negro named Corn Pop. He blames Trump for losing Afghanistan....had to redeploy them after State Department noted that the al-Shabaab was slowly taking over the country. The turbans have a huge presence in the rural central and southern parts of the Horn of Africa nation. Posted by: trailing wife 2022-08-15 |
