KDF jets pound Shaboob base in Gedo
2016-03-05
Kenyan fighter jets have on Friday bombed a position controlled by Al-Shabaab militants in neighbouring Somalia, reports said.

A resident told Radio Shabelle by phone that the KDF warplanes had targeted a big camp in Sidamo village, 50Km west of Bardere town in Gedo region. The Kenyan military airstrike inflicted heavy losses on the civilians, and destroyed livestock and wells in the rural area with the Al-Shabaab presence.

“The Kenyan warplanes fired five missiles on the area run by Al shabaab. Large number of livestock killed in the air-raid,” said a resident, speaking to Radio Shabelle via telephone.

Kenya regularly carries out airstrikes in the regions of southern Somali border regions.

#1  Shabelle? Shaboob base in Gedo? Sounds like dialog from a bad Star Wars movie ripoff.
