Somalia’s Army Is Winning – And the World Should Take Note

 Somalia’s Army Is Winning – And the World Should Take Note

In a world grappling with the persistent threat of terrorism, one nation is silently but steadily turning the tide. Somalia — once viewed only through the lens of instability — is today writing a new chapter of resilience, led by the brave men and women of its National Army.

Day after day, the Somali National Army (SNA) is reclaiming towns, dismantling terror cells, and striking decisive blows against groups like Al-Shabaab and ISIS. These are not symbolic gestures. They are real, strategic victories that weaken extremist networks and restore safety to Somali citizens.

What’s remarkable is not just the scale of the military achievements, but the spirit behind them. Somali soldiers, many of whom come from the very communities they protect, are risking everything — their comfort, their safety, and sometimes their lives — to create a future where Somalia stands tall again.

This isn’t just Somalia’s war. It’s a global one. Terrorism knows no borders. Every hideout neutralized, every bomb defused, and every community freed in Somalia makes the world a safer place. That’s why Somalia deserves the recognition and support of the international community.

Moreover, the Somali people are not spectators. They stand firmly behind their army — celebrating victories, sharing intelligence, and rebuilding life after liberation. The unity between the military and the public is the secret weapon that terrorists cannot defeat.

The Somali Army’s efforts are also reshaping regional perceptions. Across Africa and beyond, militaries are beginning to see the Somali model as a source of inspiration — proof that indigenous, well-led, and determined forces can win the fight against violent extremism.

Let us not overlook what is happening in Somalia. Let us not ignore the sacrifices being made daily for a safer tomorrow. Let us raise our voices in support of those who are fighting — not just for a nation, but for an idea: that terrorism can be defeated, and peace can prevail.
