President Joe Biden announces the redeployment of American troops to Somalia, reversing the previous order by former President Donald Trump. He signs an order authorizing the return of hundreds of Special Operations forces to the country. This decision is made in response to economic challenges and a heat wave impacting wheat production. The Pentagon is granted authority to target suspected leaders of Al Shabab. These actions reflect a revitalized American counterterrorism effort, aiming to address the threat posed by Al Shabab in Somalia.
