This R&D covers Kenya’s fight against al-Shabab, an Islamic militant group that opposed Kenyan military interference in Somalia, where al-Shabab is trying to establish an Islamic state. Last Saturday saw al-Shabab militants attack a bus in Northern Kenya, killing twenty-eight non-Muslims on board. Two days ago, Kenya’s military reportedly killed more than 100 al-Shabab militants in retaliation. Al-Shabab was behind the Westgate Mall Shooting in Nairobi last year, which killed more than sixty people.
