How did KeNHA engineers die?
In a suspected Al-Shabaab attack, 4 KeNHA engineers who were on the Old LAPSSET Road in Garissa were killed.
The engineers were in a convoy of three vehicles traveling from Garissa to Hailey Chinese Camp and then to Bura East when they came upon an improvised explosive device (IED) on the road, which detonated as the convoy passed by.
The explosion entirely wrecked the first car, a Toyota Hilux Double Cabin with the license plate KBV 502S.
