Kenya Bombed Hungry Women and Children In a Camp

[caburiye1]

An airstrike hit a camp for people displaced by Somalia's humanitarian crisis Sunday, leaving three dead and dozens of people injured, the aid group Doctors Without Borders reported.

The camp was hit during an aerial bombardment on the southern Somali town of Jilib early Sunday afternoon, the medical relief agency said in a written statement. Most of the 52 wounded its staff treated were women and children, the group said.

The group did not identify the source of the attack, but urged "all parties to the conflict in Somalia to respect the rights of civilians in conflict."

Kenya launched a military incursion into southern Somalia on October 15 in an attempt to push back the Islamist rebel group al-Shabaab, which controls most of Somalia's south. There was no immediate response from the Kenyan military to the report.

About 1,500 displaced Somali families live in the Jilib camp, with many of the children suffering from acute malnutrition, Doctors Without Borders said. They are among the hundreds of thousands displaced by drought, famine and fighting in Somalia, where an estimated 2.2 million people now depend on food aid, according to U.N. officials. The drought has given way to heavy seasonal rains in the south that are now hindering the delivery of humanitarian assistance, the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs reported Friday.

Thanks to all People Who think Kenya would bring Peace. Kenya regrets the loss of Life but Says it would continue to hit any moving being In Southern Somalia if they look Like alshabaab.

The witch hunt of somalis could be a reality. Imagine Panga boys cutting somalis to pieces. I just pray that these Al-sheydhaans don't carry out terror activities in Kenya or Kenyan army does not suffer huge loses. If that happens we are likely to witness a genocide on somalis in kenya.

Now that is the problem with wars,the bombs land on intended and unintended targets. However, there should be a clear distinction between the Army and Al shabab fighters in that whereas the army's Objective is to target the AS fighters and not civilians,the AS fighters have a clear intention and Objective to target innocent civilians including women and children. Now that is really really nasty!!

there is no really verification it was Kenya aircraft. they could have been French or other countries. plus jilib from the map is too way north for any Kenyan fighter range to reach. imagine 1000km from the Kenya border!! unless you tell me Kenya has f-22 raptors . all shabab will be brought to book for causing the death of innocent hungry women and children. also unconfirmed news say that shabab spokesman ali mohamed rage a.k.a ali dheere could have been killed in that air strike
