According to the monitoring group Airwars, a suspected US drone strike killed seven civilians, including three children, in Somalia on January 30.
Airwars cited media reports from three news outlets: Shabelle Media Network, Somali Guardian, and Caasimada Online News. Local residents said the strike took place between two villages near the border of the Hiraan and Middle Shabelle (Shabeellaha Dhexe) regions.
