The Chief of Defence Forces General Samson Mwathethe has declared relentless war against terrorism, saying KDF is currently engaging al Shabaab in Somalia. He has also asked for calm as the search, rescue and recovery process is ongoing.

On her part, Defence CS Raychelle Omamo has asked Kenyans to be calm and let the government inform families of the fallen soldiers first before making the names public.

KDF plans to set up counselling centres in Eldoret, Gilgil and at Forces Memorial in Nairobi for management of injured and missing soldiers' kin.
