"This action further degrades ISIS's ability to plot and conduct terrorist attacks," stated Pete Hegseth, the U.S. defense secretary
(Feb. 2, 2025 / JNS) U.S. President Donald Trump stated on Saturday that he ordered “precision” air strikes that morning in Somalia against the “senior ISIS attack planner and other terrorists he recruited and led in Somalia.”
The targets, who hid in caves, threatened the United States and its allies, according to the president. “The strikes destroyed the caves they live in and killed many terrorists without, in any way, harming civilians,” he stated.
“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,” Trump stated. “The message to ISIS and all others who would attack Americans is that ‘we will find you, and we will kill you.'”
