Somali soldiers patrol inside the Badbado refugee camp in Mogadishu, Somalia Friday, Feb. 3, 2012. Refugees and soldiers in Mogadishu's Badbado camp say they watched a surveillance drone crash into a hut in the camp Friday, before African Union peacekeepers came to remove it.

Refugees and soldiers in Mogadishu's Badbado camp say they watched the drone crash Friday into a hut made of sticks, corrugated cans and plastic bags.
