Shebab says British, Turkish special forces attacked Somali base
[Al Ahram] Somalia's Al-Qaeda-linked Shabaab said Saturday British and Turkish special forces staged a nighttime sea and air attack on one of its bases, but Britannia denied any involvement.
Are the Turks capable of operating so far from home? And why would they?
Leaders of the Islamist snuffies in the southern Somali port of Barawe said commandos rappelled from a helicopter and tried to storm a house belonging to a senior Shabaab commander, but the assault failed.

The assault comes two weeks after Shabaab gunnies attacked Kenya's Westgate shopping mall, massacring 67 people in a four-day siege. Six Britons were among the dead.
