Shebab Islamists kill 28 on Kenya bus

GARISSA: Somalia’s Shebab Islamists Saturday ambushed a bus in Kenya, killing 28 passengers in what they said was a revenge attack for police raids on mosques in the troubled port city of Mombasa.
The gunmen ambushed the bus in the early morning as it headed for the capital Nairobi from Mandera, a town that lies right on the border with Somalia in Kenya’s northeasternmost corner.
Some 60 passengers on board were ordered off the vehicle, and the gunmen separated the travellers into Muslims and non-Muslims.
The militants then had the non-Muslims reboard the bus and tried to drive off with them, but the vehicle got stuck, according to a news agency.
