Airstrikes in central Somalia have intensified as part of the Somali government’s ongoing efforts to eliminate Al-Shabaab, particularly in regions like Galmudug and Hirshabelle.
The strikes, often carried out in coordination with international partners, target Al-Shabaab militants, their hideouts, and key infrastructure used by the group.
This increase in airstrikes follows a broader military offensive by Somali forces on the ground, aimed at weakening Al-Shabaab’s strongholds in the region.
These operations are part of a larger strategy to restore stability and security, with significant efforts made to reduce the group’s capacity to launch attacks.
The recent intensification underscores the determination of both the Somali government and its allies to dismantle Al-Shabaab’s operational capabilities.
