The country is still mourning the deaths of at least 17 people including 3 children, victims of yet another terror attack on Kenyan soil. Another 66 people were injured, following simultaneous attacks on two churches in Garissa town. Masked gunmen stormed into the African Inland Church at 10.15 am killing two policemen providing security at the church before hurling a grenade which did not explode. They then started shooting indiscriminately. 3 kilometers away, two other grenades were hurled into a catholic church injuring three people. The gunmen are still at large.
