Ethiopian Jihadist with ISIS killed in Somalia's Puntland

[Garowe] A senior IS-Somalia commander who hails from Æthiopia has been killed by regional troops of 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...
, the state confirmed in a statement, following a botched attack in one of the cop shoppes within the coastal region of Bari where the snuffies have a presence.
Puntland said Abu Bara al-Yamani, who hails from the Amhara region of Æthiopia, was killed on Thursday after security forces repulsed a terror attack targeting Bali-Dhidin cop shoppe within the Bari region. The commander has been on the radar in Somalia for a number of months.
His death was regarded as a major "victory" in the fight against violent mostly peaceful extremism in Somalia, a country that is also struggling to eliminate al-Shabaab
 ...... an Islamic infestation centering on Somalia attempting to metastasize into Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and similar places, all of which have enough problems without them...
hard boys. Both IS-Somalia and al-Shabaab have tapped imported muscle into their systems and have been targeting both Kenya and Æthiopia.
IS-Somalia has struggled to grow and expand territory past the Bari region of the Puntland party because of formidable security teams and al-Shabaab animosity. The group has been at loggerheads with al-Shabaab snuffies for a number of years and seemingly lost the fight.
| A little bit of bleach in the gene pool. |
The IS-Somalia snuffies are said to have recruited fighters from Æthiopia and Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
but the number keeps reducing due to logistical challenges. The group rarely wages attacks in Bosaso and other neighboring towns due to the heavy presence of security forces within the Puntland region.
On Thursday, Bari region police commander Abdulkadir Jama Dirir said overnight IS attack on Balidhidhin cop shoppe ’repulsed.’ A policeman and a hard boy were killed in the ensuing firefight, in an apparent reference to the commander, who was not immediately identified.
On August 19, 2021, IS-Somalia attacked Balidhidhin killing mayor Mohammed Ahmed Mumin, in what remains one of the worst attacks within the state. Puntland has pledged to work closely with the federal government of Somalia forces as the country counties with an offensive against the hard boys.
