The strike is the first by the US military in Somalia since US Africa Command (AFRICOM) declared on January 19 that three Al-Shabaab extremists had been killed in two strikes in Jamaame and Deb Scinnele.
The US Department of Defense carried out the first airstrike since President Joe Biden s January inauguration on the forces of the radical group Al-Shabaab in Somalia, Agence France-Presse reported on Tuesday.
Citing Pentagon spokeswoman Cindi King, the news agency stated that the hit on the al-Shabaab extremist group took place in the vicinity of Galkayo, Somalia, roughly 692 km (430 miles) northeast of Mogadishu.
