Regional forces in Somalia have retaken Kuday Island in Jubaland, a day after Al-Shabaab militants seized it. Troops, supported by federal special forces and air strikes, fought for more than 24 hours to reclaim the island. Officials reported at least 59 insurgents killed, 42 injured, and 10 vehicles destroyed. Kuday, a former militant base liberated in 2015, remains strategically important for regional security and control over southern Jubaland.
