BARAWE , Somalia, Sept. 2 (UPI) -- U.S. military forces launched strikes, including the use of a drone, against al-Shabaab militants in Somalia Monday.
Pentagon press spokesman Rear Adm. John F. Kirby said officials were "still assessing the results of the operation," which targeted "a senior Shabaab operative." It was not clear if Ahmed Godane, the suspected target, was a casualty of the strike.
