No word on US pull-out from Somalia as deadline lapses


GOOBJOOG NEWS|MOGADISHU:   President Trump’s order to withdraw troops from Somalia has remained in the balance after the January 15 deadline lapsed with no movement of troops.
Trump ordered the withdrawal of the 700 soldiers based in Somalia early December with Pentagon noting they would be stationed in neighbouring countries. The US maintains its main base in Djibouti and Kenya’s coast region.
Joint Task Force-Quartz mandated to oversee the withdrawal did not put out an official position on the Somali case but spokesman Maj. Andrew Caulk told the media the matter was not up for discussion at the moment.
“Due to force protection and operational considerations, we will not discuss timelines associated with repositioning of forces at this time,” said Caulk. ....

The two New Year s Day airstrikes hit al-Shabaab compounds, destroying two according to the initial assessment. No civilians were killed or injured, officials said.
This action clearly demonstrates our continuing commitment to Somalia and our regional partners, Army Maj. Gen. Joel Tyler, director of operations for AFRICOM, said in a statement. ....

U.S dispatches 5,000 sailors and Marines off coast of Somalia


“This is a great example of how the United States can rapidly aggregate combat power to respond to emerging issues. We will look to leverage this inherent flexibility of the U.S. military in support of our future engagements in East Africa,” said U.S. Air Force Maj. Gen. Dagvin Anderson, commander of Joint Task Force Quartz, which is overseeing the redeployment of about 700 U.S. ground troops from Somalia.
President Trump ordered those forces to leave Somalia earlier this month. Pentagon leaders say they will be deployed to other locations in east Africa, and they stressed that the U.S. military’s ability to target the terrorist group al-Shabaab will not be affected by the moves. ....
