The purpose of these operations is to prevent Al-Shabaab's movements and the pressure the group exerts on the eastern region's communities, while also ensuring the security of those areas.

However, the number of additional troops to be deployed and the specific areas to which they will be sent have not yet been disclosed, and no further details have been provided regarding the timing of the implementation of this plan.
