Nairobi: The U.S. government on Monday warned that a terror attack on government buildings and hotels in Kenya’s capital could be imminent, media reported on Monday.
According to reports the U.S. Embassy in Kenya said that the timing of the attack isn’t known but they believe it to be in its final planning stages. They didn’t give further details.
The embassy further urged Americans to be vigilant.
Al-Qaeda-linked al-Shabab militants from neighboring Somalia have vowed to carry out an attack on Kenya for sending troops into Somalia.
Kenya sent hundreds of troops into Somalia in October last year following a wave of kidnappings, including those of four Europeans on Kenyan soil, blamed on al-Shabab.
