Mogadishu - Arab Today

At least 22 Somali soldiers were mistakenly killed and 16 others injured by US airstrikes in the outskirt of Galkayo town in central Somalia, according to Russia Today. 

Osman Isse Nor, Security Minister for regional Galmudug State, told reporters that airstrike only targeted their forces, saying no Al-Shabaab militants were killed during the bombardment, an incident which sparked street demonstrations against US forces. 

"The attack occurred at our army base, 30 kilometers east of this town and killed 22 soldiers, wounded 16 others and destroyed armed vehicles. The US drones carried out the attack, but we believe that the Puntland security forces gave them (United States) wrong information," Nor said. 

The minister said that the attack happened at 3:30 a.m. on Wednesday and called on Washington to give response to the latest deadly incident which saw many residents held street protests against the killings.
