Al-Shabaab

The U.S. military in a statement confirms the strike and says the al-Shabab member had direct ties to al-Qaida.

A U.S. service member was injured in a pair of targeted attacks by a terror group in Somalia this week.

Somalia's Islamic extremist rebels, al-Shabab, have claimed the responsibility for the attack.

U.S. Africa Command says that there have been no civilian casualties as a result of U.S. air strikes targeting al-Shabaab.

The U.S. military command for the African continent says the attack occurred on Monday near Shebeeley in the Hiran region.

The airstrike was carried out near an extremist camp near Shebeeley in the Hiran region north of the capital, Mogadishu.

The U.S. military says it has carried out two new airstrikes in Somalia against the al-Shabab extremist group.

The airstrike was in response to an attack against Somali forces by a "large group" of al-Shabab extremists.

Extremists launched a deadly attack on a luxury hotel in Kenya's capital Tuesday, sending people fleeing in panic.

The U.S. military says it has killed 11 al-Shabab extremists with a pair of airstrikes outside Somalia's capital.
