Somali rebel group al-Shabab has denied United States claims that more than 150 of its fighters were recently killed in air strikes.

Washington said on Monday that it had carried out several strikes in southern Somalia on the Raso training camp, in which it claimed more than 150 of the al-Qaeda-linked group’s fighters died.
