THIS is the moment the US military launches pinpoint airstrikes on ISIS terrorists after Donald Trump ordered the deadly blasts.
The unclassified footage, uniquely shared by the president on social media, shows a huge number of fireball attacks blitzing terror caves in Somalia.
After ordering the strikes over the weekend, the Republican vowed “we will find you & kill you” to any other militants hiding out.
Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Saturday that “many” Islamic State terrorists had been killed due to the airstrikes on a senior attack planner.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth confirmed he conducted the coordinated strikes alongside Trump and the Federal Government of Somalia.
The aerial attacks were carried out by US Africa Command in the Golis mountains, he added.
Incredible footage showing the moment of the blasts have now been shared by a gleeful Trump.
The short 40 second clip starts with a green screen showing the words “UNCLASSIFIED” followed by a description and date of the attack on February 1.
Video, appearing to show above the mountainous region targeted, then reveals a huge explosion.
The blast ripped through the area and sparked a fierce fireball followed by a billowing cloud of black smoke.
A second angle then shows how high the deadly smoke rose above the Islamic State hideout.
Further footage then shows a number of other smaller explosions going off nearby.

The bursts appear like bolts of lightning.
All of the footage was posted to Trump’s social media accounts less than 24 hours after he announced the strikes.
The video on X has already gained 30 million views.
The name or number of any confirmed kills are yet to be announced by Trump or the Department of Defense.
Hegseth said in a statement the attack was carried out to “further degrades ISIS‘s ability to plot and conduct terrorist attacks”.
He warned that the deadly terror plans would often threaten US citizens, partners and innocent civilians.
IS operatives have caused havoc across the globe over the past few decades but have been mainly patrolling parts of Africa in recent years.
In Somalia alone, there are estimated to be hundreds of IS fighters mostly in the Cal Miskaat mountains in Puntlands Bari region, according to the International Crisis Group.
The US has been leading the hunt for any remaining members of the terror group.
In 2023, Joe Biden ordered a special forces operation in northern Somalia which eliminated a senior ISIS commander and 10 other militants.
The raid targeted a mountain cave complex hidden in a remote region of the African nation.
Three more IS operatives were taken out last May in another US airstrike on a secluded area near Dhaardaar.
