Kenya police detonate explosives-laden car near terror attack
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleKenyan police say they have detonated a car they said had explosives inside following a terror attack on an upscale complex in the capital Nairobi. The blast sent people at the scene ducking and screaming.
Officers have moved away from other vehicles they suspect of having explosives.
Other officers have been going shop to shop in the complex in the Westlands neighborhood. It is a short walk from Westgate Mall, which was the scene of a deadly extremist attack in 2013.
The Somalia-based extremist group al-Shaba has claimed responsibility for this attack.
