A US airstrike aimed at Somali Islamist militants killed six civilians via SABCNewsOnline

Reuters could not immediately verify their allegations. U.S. Africa Command said that the strike killed five militants.

“Six of them were civilians and they were buried near the area where they were bombed by the drone, because they could not be carried as they were burnt into pieces.” The airstrikes are largely aimed at the al Qaeda-linked al Shabaab insurgency, which is fighting to oust the weak, internationally-backed government and rule using the insurgency’s own strict interpretation of Islamic law.

Last month a US airstrike in a town held by Somali Islamist insurgents killed a telecommunications worker, the man’s employer said. Africa Command said he was a member of al Shabaab.
