A suicide bomber detonated themselves on January 15, 2019, outside the bustling restaurant in the courtyard, plunging the entire complex into a frenzy.
Some members of the terror group were armed with automatic rifles and grenades, then sought to kill as many innocent bystanders who were at the hotel.
A British citizen, an American, and several Kenyans were among those murdered in the attack.
This is the second time in 2023 that the US is seeking to hold the Al Shabaab militia behind an attack on Kenyan soil accountable.
