U.S. Military Operation in Northern Somalia Kills Senior ISIS Leader and 10 Associates

On Wednesday night, a U.S. military operation in northern Somalia killed a senior leader of the Islamic State terrorist group, Bilal al-Sudani, and 10 other ISIS fighters. The operation was part of a larger effort to target and eliminate ISIS leaders and operatives in the region, and was successful with no civilian casualties. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said al-Sudani was responsible for fostering the growing presence of ISIS in Africa and funding the group's operations worldwide.
