U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) has confirmed at least six airstrikes in Somalia during March 2026 so far, targeting al-Shabaab and ISIS-Somalia in coordination with the Federal Government of Somalia, driving trader consensus toward 6-9 total strikes at 57.5%. Key recent developments include a March 19 al-Shabaab strike near Jamaame announced March 21, ISIS-Somalia strikes on March 16-18 in the Golis Mountains, two strikes around March 12 (one each against ISIS-Somalia and al-Shabaab), and an early March 8 ISIS-Somalia hit, amid Trump administration escalation to record annual levels exceeding 40 by late month. With three days remaining, the lack of announcements since March 21 leaves ≤5 (36.1%) competitive if operations pause, while higher bins reflect low odds of surge beyond historical monthly averages of 5-10.

This market will resolve according to the number of independent incidents of US-initiated drone, missile, or air strikes on the soil of Somalia that occur between March 1 and March 31, 2026, and are announced by the United States Africa Command (AFRICOM) by April 4, 2026, 12:00 PM ET.
For the purposes of this market, a qualifying "strike" is defined as the use of aerial bombs, drones, or missiles (including FPV and ATGM strikes as well as cruise or ballistic missiles) launched by any United States operatives, including military forces, intelligence agencies, or other U.S. government operatives, that physically impact ground territory within the listed country.
A strike on any area within the terrestrial territory (including rivers, lakes, ports, but excluding territorial sea) of the listed country counts.
Missiles or drones that are intercepted and surface-to-air missile strikes will not count, regardless of whether they land in the listed country’s territory or cause damage.
Actions such as artillery fire, small arms fire, ground incursions, naval shelling, or cyberattacks will not qualify.
An incident of a US-initiated drone, missile, or air strike refers to any strike or series of strikes described by AFRICOM as a contiguous incident in a single region. Each AFRICOM press release describing a strike or series of strikes will count as one incident, unless AFRICOM explicitly distinguishes incidents as separate strike events. For example, the strikes on January 25-26, 2026 (https://www.africom.mil/pressrelease/36183/us-forces-conduct-strikes-targeting-al-shabaab) and January 12, 2026 (https://www.africom.mil/pressrelease/36174/us-forces-conduct-strikes-targeting-al-shabaab) would have counted as single incidents, even though they included multiple individual strikes.
The date of a qualifying strike incident will be determined by the date provided by AFRICOM. Any strike incident announced by AFRICOM to have occurred at least partially in the listed period will count (e.g. a strike incident announced to have occurred from February 28-March 1, 2026, would count). If the date of an announced strike is not released by AFRICOM, a consensus of credible reporting may be used to determine the timing of a strike incident. In this case, a strike will be considered to have occurred in the specified period if it is determined that it occurred in that period, in Eastern Time (timeframes partially, but not fully, in this period will count). Any strike incident announced by AFRICOM after April 4, 2026, 12:00 PM ET will not count, regardless of the timing of the strike.
This market will remain open until April 4, 2026, 12:00 PM ET. If the date/time of a qualifying strike cannot be confirmed by that time, it will not count, regardless of whether a strike was later confirmed to have taken place.
The primary resolution source for this market will be the United States Africa Command (AFRICOM) (https://www.africom.mil/media-gallery/press-releases); however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used to determine the timing of an announced strike incident.U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) has confirmed at least six airstrikes in Somalia during March 2026 so far, targeting al-Shabaab and ISIS-Somalia in coordination with the Federal Government of Somalia, driving trader consensus toward 6-9 total strikes at 57.5%.
