Three police officers have been killed in a suspected Al Shabaab terror group attack in Garissa.
The three are said to have died after a vehicle they were driving in hit a landmine early morning.
Regional coordinator Mohamud Saleh said the terrorists have the three including a police inspector died instantly while others in the group were flown to Nairobi for treatment.
“The militants have found it difficult to carry out attacks as they used to do because all the entry points along the border have been closed. They have now resorted to planting IEDs at selected roads just to target security officers,” Saleh told The Star.
He further stated efforts to flush out the militants which will include arresting and prosecuting citizens abetting terrorism will continue.
