Two GSU officers dead after their car ran over Alshabaab an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) while heading to man KCPE exams in Garissa.
According to reports, the officers were heading to Garissa to provide security to candidates sitting for the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE).
The attack occurred at Ege Dam along the Dadaab-Garissa road, leaving some officers in critical condition.
Several other officers were also injured and rushed to Dadaab Hospital for urgent treatment.
It is suspected that the IED was planted by Al Shabaab militants who have launched attacks in the Northern part of the country.
AlShabaab attacks in the north have been rampant with several innocent Kenyans losing their lives.
The government through Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki and his Defense colleague, Aden Duale has promised to put an end to the attacks and hold those responsible for them accountable.
