The Friday attack took place near Qooqani town located in southern Somalia, a Press TV correspondent reported.
In a different incident on Friday, another US drone attack killed 11 civilians and wounded 34 more in Hoosingow district in the south of the country.
Somalia is the sixth country where the US military has conducted drone strikes.
The US has employed drones in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, Iraq and Yemen to launch aerial bombings.
Washington claims the airstrikes target militants, though most such attacks have resulted in civilian casualties.
Somalia has been without a functioning government since 1991, when warlords overthrew former dictator Mohamed Siad Barre.
