The al Shabaab group, which seeks to overthrow Somalia's Western-backed government and impose a strict version of Sharia law, has carried out regular assaults in neighbouring Kenya in retaliation for Kenya's contributing troops to an African Union peacekeeping force in Somalia. "This afternoon, we launched twin attacks," Sheikh Abdiasis Abu Musab, al Shabaab's military spokesman, told Reuters. |

 Israeli border police shot dead a Palestinian woman who tried to ram them with her car in the West Bank on Friday, the police said, as a 12-week surge in street violence showed no sign of abating. A police spokesman said the car accelerated in the direction of the border police officers, who took cover and fired at the vehicle. One Palestinian witness, Suhail Hamed, 39, said the police opened fire when the car was 150 metres (yards) away from them.
