On August 10, 2014, Kenya Defence Forces said they had uncovered a network of caves in Mokowe and Boni Forest in Lamu County that were believed to have been used by gunmen linked to the Mpeketoni attack.
The discovery pointed to a possible hideout system in the coastal forest area, where security teams had been pursuing suspects after the assault. The archive item does not provide further operational detail, names of suspects, or a formal response from the military beyond the discovery itself.
Nyakundi Report is preserving the report as an archive record of the claim that the caves were connected to the attackers.
