Trump says he ordered precision military air strikes on ISIS leaders in Somalia

The U.S. military conducted coordinated airstrikes against ISIS operatives in Somalia, the first attacks in the African nation during President Trump's second term.

Mr. Trump said Saturday in a post on Truth Social that he ordered "precision Military air strikes 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 post continued. "The strikes destroyed the caves they live in, and killed many terrorists without, in any way, harming civilians."
