Netanyahu: Israel and Kenya share terrorist threat
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleIsrael and Kenya should work hand-in-hand against terrorism, Netanyahu says in Nairobi during the second stop on his four-nation Africa tour.
Netanyahu says Kenya and Israel “face the same challenges” of terrorism, and cites the 2013 attack on the Israeli-owned Westgate shopping mall in Nairobi in which four jihadist gunmen killed at least 67 people.
“We have also experienced similar attacks in our country,” Netanyahu says. “Working together will help us defeat the scourge of this terror even faster.”
The PM promises to share intelligence and provide “direct assistance” aimed at saving lives. “There is a raging battle with terrorism,” he says.
