[Garowe] Puntland
...a region in northeastern Somalia, centered on Garowe in the Nugaal province. Its leaders declared the territory an autonomous state in 1998. Puntland and the equally autonomous Somaliland seem to have avoided the clan rivalries and warlordism that have typified the rest of Somalia, which puts both places high on the list for Islamic subversion...
Security Forces have killed at least 24 hard boyz aligned with the Islamic State
 ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
group by direct fire during a series of operations over the last two days in parts of Bari province.
Following a tip-off, the troops raided the base in the al-Miskaat Mountains around Balidhidin district, where ISIS used to store heavy ammunition and materials to make IEDs and boom-mobiles, according to PSF.
A video clip released by PSF showed troops blowing up two intercepted vehicles loaded with kabooms which ISIS members were planning to use in terror attacks to harm innocent civilians.
The troops recovered homemade explosives and firearms from the scene of the fighting. The ISIS fighters fled towards the semi-forest hills as PSF intensified the offensive.
The security forces of Somalia’s northeastern Federal state continue to carry out frequent operations against the ISIS group in these parts where the group has recently mobilized fighters in the hilly areas.
The ISIS hard boyz broke off from al-Shabaab
...... the personification of Somali state failure...
for 6 years and continued sporadic raids in the Bari region, where the terror groups have hideouts to train their fighters and orchestrate attacks in Puntland.
Puntland, which enjoyed relative calm for decades is now facing dual challenges facing security forces from the al-Qaeda-linked al-Shabaab and the growing presence of fighters linked to the Islamic State.
