Puntland government defense forces have conducted strategic operations in the Al-Miskaad mountains of the Bari region, targeting ISIS hideouts.
In the Cascasey area, where operations took place on Sunday, security forces eliminated more than 10 foreign fighters and seized weapons and equipment, as confirmed by images shared on social media.
Further operations in the Qandala mountains aimed to dismantle ISIS positions, according to Puntland defense officials.
A day earlier, on Saturday, Puntland Defense Forces launched an offensive in the Buqo-Aleed area, successfully capturing ISIS headquarters in the mountains, along with vehicles, wells, and strategic positions held by the group since 2017.
These operations mark a significant step in Puntland’s ongoing efforts to eliminate militant threats and restore stability in the region.
