MOGADISHU - A top intelligence official with Somalia's Al-Qaeda-affiliated Shebab rebels was killed in a US air strike on Monday, Somalia's government said.
In a joint operation last night by the Somali national security and the United States, Al-Shebab intelligence chief Abdishakur, also known as Tahlil, who replaced the recently arrested former chief, was eliminated, Somalia's National Security Agency said in a statement Tuesday.
