Somali National Army Kills Nearly 100 Al-Shabaab Terrorists in Joint Operations

In a joint operation with the US mission to assist the Somali army, the Somali National Army carried out a planned air and ground operation today in the areas of Gal-Libah and El Qurac, located on the border of Galgaduud and Middle Shabelle regions today. The operation targeted a gathering of al-Shabaab terrorists.

Nearly 100 terrorists, including leaders, were killed in the operation, which also destroyed their base where they were plotting against the government. The operation was well supported by local residents who cooperated with the national army.

The Federal Government of Somalia expressed its appreciation for the assistance provided by the United States in helping to destroy the gathering of al-Shabaab terrorists who were planning to harass the Somali people.

The Somali National Army continues to search for any remaining terrorists who may have escaped. This operation is part of a series of continuous operations, including recent ones in Budbud and Weel-Maarow where more than 70 al-Shabaab members were killed.

The government, with the help of the public and international partners, remains committed to eradicating al-Shabaab and other terrorist groups.
