Al-Shabab Militant Base 'Attacked' On Coast Of Somalia -- BBC
Islamist fighters in southern Somalia say Western forces have launched a night-time raid on one of their bases.
The militant group al-Shebab told the BBC "white soldiers" had arrived by boat at the port of Barawe and rebels had repulsed them, losing a fighter.
No-one has admitted the attack. US and French special forces have carried out raids in Somalia in recent years.
It is not clear whether it is linked to last month's attack in neighbouring Kenya, which al-Shebab has claimed.
At least 67 people were killed after militants stormed the Westgate shopping centre in the capital, Nairobi, on 21 September.
