Al-Shabaab militants raid Kenya's remote village, kill six people
[Garowe] For the first time in as many months, suspected al-Shabaab
...... al-Qaeda's tentacle in East Africa...
bandidos hard boyz raided a remote village in coastal Kenya on Monday morning, in an incident that comes at the time Somalia is undergoing political turmoil.

Police said the suspected Death Eaters whose number is yet to be established, killed at least six people in the bizarre incident, which comes at the time Kenya is working with International partners to lock the Death Eaters out of the country.

The incident took place at Widhu Majembeni village in Lamu County, a few miles from Boni Forest where a multi-agency team led by Kenya Defense Forces [KDF] have been conducting operations to flush out the krazed killers.

During the incident, police said, the Death Eaters torched several houses in the village while shooting randomly. It's not clear if security officers were at the site when the Death Eaters attacked the village at dawn.

While confirming the attack, Lamu County Commissioner Irungu Macharia said of the victims, one was rubbed out while another one was hacked to death. The remaining four were burnt to death in their houses.

Macharia said investigations into the incursion have commenced. Although the motive is not yet known, the Death Eaters often target security forces, civil servants, and innocent in their cowardly attacks.

Curiously, the incident comes two years after the attack which targeted the United States army at Manda Bay in Lamu County. The Jan 5, 2020 incident left three Americans dead triggering surveillance in the camp, which is strategic for the US in East Africa.
