BBC (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/6248669.stm#Somalia)

An elder in Banka-Jiira, a grazing area about 40km east of Doble town, who wished to remain anonymous citing security reasons, gave an account of the raids and their aftermath to the BBC's Somali Service.


We do not have the figures of the dead animals as a result of the air strikes but they are very many livestock that have been killed by the bombs.

I know people were killed some Borat-esque quotes there.
