He urged the soldiers to remain focused, alert, and mission-driven, reaffirming that their continued dedication has been instrumental in disrupting Al-Shabaab networks, denying the enemy freedom of movement, and securing critical national development corridors, including the LAPSSET infrastructure.
Brigadier Kishoyian concluded by assuring the troops of the Command’s continued support in providing the necessary resources and logistics to sustain momentum and advance the overall mission of Operation Amani Boni, which aims to restore lasting peace and stability within the Boni enclave and its environs.
