More than 50 ISIS terrorists have been killed in fighting between Puntland forces and ISIS militants in the past 48 hours in the Al-Miskaad mountains of Bari region.
Most of the operations took place in the Miraale and Baallade rivers, and Puntland forces, supported by Puntland and US warplanes, entered areas where ISIS militants had taken refuge, having been expelled from Miraale, the main ISIS command in the Horn of Africa.
Puntland forces lost two soldiers in the fighting, while three others were wounded.
A large number of weapons, ammunition, drones and military equipment were seized from ISIS terrorists in the operation, according to leading officials.
Puntland President Said Abdullahi Deni, who is expected to return to Bosaso today, will announce the end of Phase 3 of the operation to eliminate ISIS terrorists, and will move on to Phase 4.
During Operation Hilaa, Puntland forces cleared a large area of about 350-KM, where the terrorist group ISIS had an official presence and was carrying out terrorist acts. Their elimination brought Puntland a historic victory and international allies who were convinced that Puntland is an official friend, with military and political power.
