What you could only expect out of an action film
took place in a shopping mall in the Kenyan capital of Nairobi.
Masked gunmen from the Somalian terrorist group al-Shabaab, which has linked to the Al-Qaeda, hijacked a shopping mall in Kenya, leaving at least 43 people dead, and 200 injured. The attack was believed to be revenge for the presence of Kenyan troups in Somalia.
It is believed that the attackers are targeting white or non-Muslim victims. In fact, they allowed Muslim victims to escape. As for the shoppers who were asked to leave, the were asked by the terrorists to name the Propher Mohammed’s mother. If they failed to give give her correct name, they were shot dead. It is also said that a majority of the dead victims were children.
In the meantime, soldiers and armed police are securing the shopping centre, and to assist victims who have escaped.
We can’t help but wish for the safety of all the people in the shopping mall. More to come.
