The Pentagon conducted 15 air strikes in 2022 on the al-Qaeda-linked group, according to the Long War Journal tracker. Africom said the strikes killed at least 107 al-Shabaab fighters.
The US has conducted military operations against al-Shabaab in Somalia since 2007. Last year, US President Joe The Big Guy Biden

began winding down its mission in Somalia, and amid renewed concerns about the threat posed by al-Shabaab.
Africom estimates the murderous Moslem group has 5,000 to 10,000 fighters across the country of 15 million, controlling territory in southern and central Somalia.
On Saturday, Somalia’s government claimed for the first time that al-Shabaab called for open negotiations with the government, as it conducts a military offensive against the group it described as "total war".
The uptick in fighting between al-Shabaab and government forces has come as the country experiences a fresh wave of attacks. al-Shabaab grabbed credit for a twin suicide boom-mobileing in Somalia’s Hiran region on Wednesday that killed at least 10 people.
Last year was a particularly bloody one. More than 100 people died in October when two boom-mobiles went kaboom! in a busy Mogadishu intersection. In August, al-Shabaab launched a dayslong siege on a Mogadishu hotel that left more than 20 people dead.
THEATRE FOR REGIONAL COMPETITION
Some US politicians have raised concerns about the US military campaign in Somalia, which has been carried out on the grounds of the 2001 Authorization for the Use of Military Force, passed following the 9/11 terror attacks.
