A 37-year-old Somali-American congresswoman Ilhan Omar is pushing for US President Donald Trump to pay compensation to people killed by US drone attacks in Somalia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Democratic lawmaker, who arrived in the US as a child refugee in 1995, made the demand on Thursday during an interview with the BBC<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDrone attacks in\u00a0Somalia<\/a>\u00a0take place in night time. They don\u2019t kill only terrorists, but civilians as well, and families sleeping together,\u201d she told the BBC Somali Service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat we are working at now is to stop this and make sure its being directed accurately, and most importantly to pay compensation on those who lost their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are subject to the international law, and therefore compensation should be paid if someone has been illegally killed by another state,\u201d she added<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
