As if to prove their disdain for our sovereignty, Al Shabaab militants from Somalia struck at Yumbis in Garissa County towards the end of May.
While their military spokesperson claimed the attack had resulted in the deaths of 25 Kenyan policemen and destroyed five police vehicles, Interior Cabinet Secretary Joseph Nkaiserry and Inspector General of Police Joseph Boinett denied the death claims, but confirmed five police vehicles had indeed been destroyed in a well laid out ambush.
