AFRICOM Favors More Aggressive Approach in Somalia

The Associated Press published on 24 March 2017 an article titled "General Favors More Aggressive Approach in Somalia" by Lolita C. Baldor.

The commander of the U.S. Africa Command said he wants greater authority to conduct airstrikes and use military force in Somalia to allow the United States to strike al-Shabaab militants more quickly. The White House has not yet approved the request.
