Somalia: US accused of killing 22 troops in air strike
The Galmudug region's Security Minister Osman Issa said 22 of his soldiers had been killed in the early Wednesday strike, adding the rival region of Puntland had requested air suport on the pretext that the men were al-Shabab fighters.
"Puntland misinformed the United States and thus our forces were bombed," Issa told Reuters news agency.
