US TROOPS HEADING BACK INTO SOMALIA

摘要

Several hundred U.S. servicemembers will again be stationed inside Somalia to help combat growing al-Shabab terrorist forces there, administration officials confirmed May 16. The move reverses an order by President Donald Trump 18 months ago to remove all U.S. military forces from the country — over the objections of Pentagon officials. Before then, about 700 American troops had been stationed in the country, helping to train local forces in their fight against terrorist groups.
