Stars and Stripes | US wants to carry out drone strikes against al-Shabab in Kenya, report says
The U.S. military is seeking permission to strike terrorist targets inside Kenya, a partner country where three Americans were killed earlier this year after their base came under attack by insurgents, the New York Times reported.
U.S. Africa Command wants to be able to carry out drone strikes against al-Shabab, an al-Qaida linked group that is based in neighboring Somalia, from where it launches occasional attacks in eastern Kenya, the Times reported Tuesday, citing unnamed government sources. |
