NAIROBI, Kenya -- A police spokesman says that nine Kenyan suspects who carried out attacks in Kenya trained with a militia group in Somalia with links to al-Qaida. Deputy police spokesman Charles Wahongo said Monday the nine are responsible for a series of unresolved gun and grenade attacks last year. Wahongo said they received training from al-Shabab though they could have acted independently. Three grenades exploded at a political rally in downtown Nairobi in June, killing six people. In December, two traffic police died when they were shot and a third was seriously injured by a grenade. One person was killed in a grenade attack on a bus company. Of the nine suspects, two were killed by police. The other seven are at large.

We Are Winning the War on Terrorism in Horn of Africa
The threat is from violent extremists who are a small minority of the world's 1.3 billion Muslims, the threat is real. They distort Islam. They kill man, woman and child; Christian and Hindu, Jew and Muslim. They seek to create a repressive caliphate. To defeat this enemy, we must understand who we are fighting against, and what we are fighting for.
