Congrats on the loss. The only thing that causes belly fat to go away is a calorie deficit and luck.2

Good job! Unfortunately you can't purposely loose fat on certain area , it comes off evenly or some lose it faster in certain bodyparts. Eventually it will come off though, just keep going and be patient!0

Body fat will typically come off in the reverse order to how you gained it. If the belly fay went on first it will come off last, not much you can do about it except lose enough overall body fat that the belly fat comes off.
There are no exercises that will remove fat from one specific area of the body but you can do some exercises to tone and strengthen the underlying muscles in that area to help hide the fat there.
Also what might look like belly fat can just be the effect of gravity on your viscera as the supporting ligaments stretch. Not much you can do about that either.
Do lots of core exercises, crunches, planks etc. to improve the belly muscles and that will help hide the excess fat there. Keep up the calorie defecit to actually lose it.
