Kenya: Four killed in Gikomba twin blast


Two explosions have struck the Gikomba market area of the Kenyan capital Nairobi, killing at least four people and injuring scores, Red Cross officials say.

It is not clear what caused the blasts but a controlled robot was seen in the foreground. Kenya has been hit by a spate of attacks in recent years - and they have mostly been blamed on the al-Shabab militant Islamist group from neighbouring Somalia. Continue
Meanwhile, Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta issued a statement in reaction to the blasts which said: "Many countries are faced with this particular problem (terrorism). All of us must be united to ensure that we fight it."

"We will do what we can as a government. We in Kenya, are committed to this fight and we urge Kenyans to work with us."
