Seven KDF Officers Killed in Roadside Bombing in Lower Juba

Seven officers of the Kenya Defense Forces (KDF) were killed in a roadside bomb attack on January 12.

An Improvised Explosive Device (IED) targeted a convoy of KDF vehicles on Tuesday.

The KDF military personnel were attacked while traveling along the road between Dhobley and Hosingow.

KDF military personnel came under the second such attack in the last 24 hours.

The attack represents the growing state of lawlessness in Somalia, the East African nation that is currently gripped in election fever.
