At least 37 al Shabaab militants were killed in a US airstrike on Monday, the US Africa Command (AFRICOM) has said.

In a statement, the agency said they conducted two separate airstrikes in Debatscile, Somalia.

“We currently assess the first airstrike killed 27 militants. This precision strike was a planned and deliberate action,” it said.

“These precision airstrikes were conducted with the support of the Federal Government of Somalia as it continues to degrade al Shabaab,” it added.

Fortunately, the airstrike did not injure or kill any civilians.

“The airstrikes reduce al Shabaab’s ability to plot future attacks, disrupt networks and degrade its freedom of maneuver withing the region,” it said.

During their meeting at the White House in August, President Donald Trump promised President Uhuru Kenyatta that the US government would strengthen efforts to rid East Africa of al Shabaab.
