U.S. Forces Free Aid Workers in Somalia Raid 
---------------------------------------------



U.S. forces have freed two western aid workers after nearly three months
of captivity in Somalia. The workers — one a U.S. citizen, the
other from Denmark — were rescued in a raid by a team of Navy
Seals. An unknown number of the pair's captors were killed in the
operation.
