Summary

The United States Africa Command stated that it conducted two separate aerial attacks against the al-Shabaab militant group in Somalia on October 21 and October 23. These operations increase the count of American airstrikes in the country to 90 for the current year. The military actions were directed at al-Shabaab positions near Hargeisa Yare and approximately four miles to the northeast of Janale. AFRICOM did not release information regarding the results of these missions, such as the number of casualties or whether any civilians were affected. According to Radio Ergo, intense combat and aerial bombardments in the region since the beginning of September have forced over 1,700 families to flee their homes.
