ROADSIDE BOMB KILLS FOUR IN KENYA

Four people were killed and 11 injured when their landcruiser detonated a bomb planted on a road in northeast Kenya on Friday, a senior government official has said.

Last month, at least eight police officers were killed in two roadside bombings in the area, with al Shabaab Islamist militants based in neighbouring Somalia claiming responsibility.
Early on Friday a public service vehicle was blown up by an improvised Explosive Device (IED) between Fino and Sheikh Barow, Mandera County Commissioner, Frederick Shisia, said.
“A (Toyota) Landcruiser which was carrying about 15 people ran over an IED. It exploded, killing four instantly, and injured 11,” he told Reuters.
