Puntland regional forces have successfully destroyed an ISIS and Daesh hideout in the Togal Jaceel area of the Calmiskaad Mountains. In a major counterterrorism operation, around 57 militants were killed, and a cache of weapons and explosives was seized.
The Somali army has been making significant gains against ISIS fighters, who have illegally entered the country in an attempt to establish a base for their activities. Authorities emphasize that Somalia, a nation with a 100% Muslim population, rejects ISIS and its ideology, which they say misrepresents Islam and poses a threat to national security.
The ongoing fight against terrorist groups has united the Somali people, who remain determined to defend their land from infiltration by extremist elements.
