Al Shabaab ‘Threaten To Hit During Ramadhan’
Police have warned of fresh terror threats from Al Shabaab militants who have warned of massive destruction in Kenya during Ramadhan.
Nairobi Provincial Police chief Anthony Kibuchi said they had received intelligence reports that the terrorists plan to hit their targets during the Holy Month of Ramadhan.
“Al Shabaab terrorists have issued threats that they will carry out massive destruction during the month of Ramadhan,” Kibuchi said and urged the public to remain vigilant.
“Let everybody be extra alert,” he added.
A police source told us “security has been intensified mainly in Nairobi, Mombasa and border towns where the terrorists are targeting.”
Security has been intensified in government installations and public places, including hotels, the source added.
The group has in the past months threatened to bring down Kenya’s “tall glass buildings” after Kenyan troops crossed into Somalia last October following a spate of attacks and abductions in its territory that it blamed on the militants.
