*U.S. Army Teams Heading to 35 African Countries*
*Democracy Now, USA, 26 December 2012*
U.S. Army teams will be deploying to as many as 35 African countries
early next year for training programs and other operations as part of an
increased Pentagon role in Africa.
The move would see small teams of U.S. troops dispatched to countries
with groups allegedly linked to al-Qaeda, such as Libya, Sudan, Algeria
and Niger.
The teams are from a U.S. brigade that has the capability to use drones
for military operations in Africa if granted permission.
The deployment could also potentially lay the groundwork for future U.S.
military intervention in Africa.
In related news, the United Nations Security Council has unanimously
backed sending thousands of African troops into Mali to help combat
Islamist militants who have claimed vast areas in the country's north.
