Nairobi attack: Terror group al-Shabaab claims responsibility for suicide bombing at Kenyan hotel complex as reports say at least five killed
Police say attack began with explosion in car park and suicide bombing in hotel foyer
At least five people have been killed in a suspected terror attack on an upmarket hotel complex in the Kenyan capital Nairobi, reports suggest.
Eyewitnesses reported a number of casualties at the DusitD2 hotel and office complex in the city’s Westlands neighbourhood after an explosion and suicide bombing that have been claimed by al-Shabaab, the Somali Islamist militant group.
Kenya‘s interior minister, Fred Matiangi, said at about 11pm local time that the “situation is under control” and that all affected buildings had been cleared.
Authorities did not release official death toll and injury figures, nor detail of how many attackers were thought to have been involved. Witness accounts suggested at least five people had died and some hospitals appealed for blood donations in the wake of the assault.
Survivors of the deadly attack described a massive explosion and the bodies of people shot dead while sitting at a cafe.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
