Kenyan police thwart a terrorist attack in a border area

Kenyan police

 Kenyan police announced on Tuesday that they had thwarted a terrorist attack in an area located on the eastern border with Somalia.

Police spokeswoman Raisila Onyango said a security team confiscated 6 AK47s, 2 rocket-propelled grenades, 2 grenades and other items during an operation on Monday in Kenya's northeastern Garsa county.

Police have raided an al-Shabaab camp following reports that the terrorist group has been sending its members to Kenya over the past month to launch attacks.

Al-Shabaab, linked to Al Qaeda, has been carrying out attacks against civilian and military targets in Kenya, particularly in Mandera, Wojir and Garsa counties in eastern Kenya.
