The United States forces have killed a senior member of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and his allies in airstrikes in Somalia.
President Donald Trump confirmed the killing of the terrorists in a post on X on Saturday.
He said the airstrikes destroyed the caves which served as the terrorists’ hideout in the Horn of Africa country.
The president added that the ISIS member had been a target for the US military, but his predecessor, Joe Biden failed to act quickly.
He vowed that the US would eliminate any ISIS member or terrorist who threatens America.
Trump wrote: “This morning, I ordered precision military airstrikes on the senior ISIS attack planner and other terrorists he recruited and led in Somalia.
“These killers, who we found hiding in caves, threatened the United States and our allies.
“The strikes destroyed the caves they lived in and killed many terrorists without, in any way, harming civilians.
“Our military has targeted this ISIS attack planner for years, but Biden and his cronies wouldn’t act quickly enough to get the job done. I did!
“The message to ISIS and all others who would attack Americans is this: ‘We will find you, and we will kill you.”
