Bob Prucha, a US military spokesman, confirmed there was a US attack on a "known
al-Qaeda target" and militia leader.
Mukhtar Robow "Abu Mansur", a leader of al-Shabaab, said: "It is true that infidel planes bombed Dhusamareb. This was an unprovoked attack, Aden Hashi Eyrow and Sheikh Mohamed Muhyadin Omar are the most important Shabaab members who were victims of this foreign aggression... The death of Eyrow and Omar will not stop the struggle for the supremacy of Allah and the liberation of the holy land of Somalia. We will continue the struggle until the Somali people are free." == See also ==
