The Kenyan army has confirmed there's been an aerial bombardment of a military base belonging to the Islamist group al-Shabab. A week ago, Kenyan forces moved across the border, saying they would pursue militants accused of several recent kidnappings. Richard Hamilton reports.

肯尼亚军方表示，已对伊斯兰阿尔沙巴布的一处军事基地进行空中轰炸。一周前，肯尼亚部队越过边境线，声称要追捕涉嫌几起绑架事件的武装分子。Richard Hamilton报道。

A Kenyan military spokesman, Major Emmanuel Chirchir, told the BBC that the target had been hit but would not confirm whether Kenyan planes or those of other allied forces had carried out the raid. He said the base was in an area called Congo, on the outskirts of the port of Kismayo. When the Kenyan army began its incursion into Somalia a week ago, it highlighted Kismayo as a key target. Al-Shabab fighters have withdrawn from their bases in the capital Mogadishu but resorted to guerrilla warfare as evidenced by an attack on a convoy of African Union troops in the city earlier on Sunday.

肯尼亚军方发言人Emmanuel Chirchir少校告诉BBC，已对目标进行打击，但不确定是肯尼亚飞机还是其他盟军进行了那次突袭。他说，该基地在基斯马约港口外围一个叫Congo的地区。肯尼亚军方一周前开始入侵索马里时，就将基斯马约作为重要目标。阿尔沙巴布武装分子已从首都摩加迪沙的基地撤出，而转以游击作战的方式，可以证明这点的，是其周日早些时候袭击了一支非盟部队。
