ICC Note:

Al Shabab once again attacks the town of Mandera in Kenya. Al Shabab has been responsible for singling out Christians and torturing and killing them. Just past July, a bus full of passengers from Mandera was attacked by the terrorist group where one of the victims was a pastor who was executed with shots to the head.  Pray for our brothers and sisters in Kenya as they continue to live in fear and fall victim to Al Shabab.

10/06/2016 Kenya (Capitalfm) –  Six people were killed in Mandera early Thursday morning, in an attack blamed on Al Shabaab terrorists, police and local authorities said.

The attack occurred at a village near Bulla Public Works that had a total of 33 non-locals, police said.

“There was an attack in Mandera and unfortunately we lost six people,” Police chief Joseph Boinnet told Capital Fm on telephone.

He said the “attack occurred near the border and was targeting non locals but our officers moved swiftly and rescued 27 others.”

Mandera Governor Ali Roba too confirmed the attack saying “we have suffered yet another attack in Mandera and sadly we have lost 6 people.”

A senior police officer from the region said “there is no doubt this is the work of Al Shabaab who crossed back to their country but we will get them.”
