The United Nations Security Council has authorized a new African Union mission in Somalia (AUSSOM) aimed at combating the spread of terrorist groups, including Al-Shabaab.

The mission aims to support the Federal Government of Somalia in degrading Al-Shabaab and affiliates linked to Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), also known as Da’esh.

AUSSOM is set to replace the existing African Union Transition Mission in Somalia (ATMIS), which evolved from AMISOM after its initial deployment in 2007.
