Friday, October 17, 2025 - Kenyan security forces on Thursday thwarted a planned terror attack in Garissa County following a fierce 30-minute gun battle with heavily armed Al-Shabaab militants.
According to police reports, the militants attempted to
launch an attack on a security installation in the outskirts of Garissa
town just as the country was mourning the death of former Prime
Minister Raila Odinga.
Alert officers from the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) and
the Anti-Terror Police Unit (ATPU) swiftly responded to intelligence
reports and intercepted the terrorists before they could strike.
A heavy exchange of gunfire ensued, forcing the militants to
retreat into nearby thickets.
One suspected terrorist was captured alive and is currently
being interrogated by security agencies.
