KDF killed 31 al Shabaab militants after raiding their bases in Baadhade district in Jubaland, Somalia on Sunday.
Kenyan forces also seized IEDs, 11 AK-47 rifles and 634 rounds of ammunition from the militants' base.
In a statement to newsrooms, KDF spokesperson Joseph Owuoth said they destroyed two vehicles belonging to the militants and seized military uniforms and foodstuff.
"The intelligence-led operation was executed by air and ground assets. Ground troops were supported by attack helicopters and artillery fire to access the terrorists' base and the two command and logistics bases 17 kilometres from Siraria near Hola Wajeer," he added.
He said other militants fled with injuries.

In January, al Shabaab fighters attacked a Kenyan military base in the southern Somali town of Kulbiyow near the Kenyan border.
KDF said nine soldiers died while al Shabaab said it killed at least 66.
This was the terror group's latest assault on Kenyan troops who are part of the African Union Mission in Somalia.
But President Uhuru Kenyatta has maintained that Kenyans troops will only leave the war-torn country after the threat of terror is eliminated.

On March 18, President Uhuru Kenyatta made a historic visit to Somalia
and met soldiers serving under Amisom at Dhobley military camp.
His visit came four days after the State of the Nation address in which he paid glowing tribute to Kenyan men and women in uniform for their commitment and dedication to securing their country.
“Your being in Somalia has saved many lives and for that, Kenyans will forever be indebted to you. Your presence here has at least freed people of the fear of al Shabaab,” he told the troops.
