The U.S. military in Africa says it carried out an airstrike in southern Somalia that killed eight extremists at a rebel command and logistics camp, 185 miles southwest of Mogadishu, the capital.
A U.S. military statement said the attack happened Sunday morning.
Somali president Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed confirmed the airstrike, saying that Somali and partner forces destroyed an al-Shabaab training camp near Sakow, in the Middle Juba region. He said such attacks would disrupt the group's ability to conduct new attacks within Somalia, AP reported.
