as well as seven fighters from the jihad boy group linked to al-Qaeda, residents said.

Kenya sent troops into anarchic Somalia in October after raids and kidnappings it blamed on al-Shabaab, but the advance has slowed and regional insecurity is no better. Somali rebels killed seven people in an attack inside Kenya last week.

The jets bombed an al-Shabaab base at Jilib, 120 km north of Kismayu, the port city which is the nerve-centre of rebel operations in the Horn of Africa country.

Residents and an al-Shabaab front man said seven fighters were killed. Five children and their parents died when a bomb hit their home as they were sitting down to lunch.
