Somalia's Al Shabaab insurgents claimed responsibility for an attack on a bus that killed seven people.
Gunmen blocked the bus with their car late on Friday and sprayed it with bullets. They also attacked two lorries carrying mangos near Witu, a town in Lamu County which borders Somalia.
A spokesman for Al Shabaab's military operations, Sheikh Abdiasis Abu Musab, told Reuters,
The attack was in response to Kenya's claim that it deployed more troops in the coast and thus tightened security. Kenya also lied by saying it destroyed Al Shabaab bases there - that is propaganda.
The recovered account cited reporting by The Star.
