GARISSA—Three Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) staff were killed in a suspected terror attack in Bura East, Garissa on Wednesday.
“A convoy of KeNHA engineers in 3 vehicles who were on routine assessment of the LAPSSET Road were attacked by suspected al-Shabaab elements who had placed an IED on the old LAPSSET road which exploded destroying the first vehicle completely,” a police report seen by Kulan Post reads in part.

The first car, a Toyota Hilux double cabin, was destroyed completely by the IED, the other vehicles turned back to Hailey camp.
In December last year, two police officers and a civilian were killed in a similar attack in the same area.
