Kenyan fighter jets have bombed the al-Qaeda-linked al-Shabab group in Somalia, killing more than 80 of its fighters, the African Union (AU) force in Somalia has said.

The assault on the villages of Anole and Kuday was part of an effort to "liberate" Somalia from al-Shabab's grip, the AU added.

Kenyan troops are part of the 22,000-strong AU force battling al-Shabab.
