In less than a month, the Al Shabaab group has carried out at least six attacks in Garissa, Wajir and Mandera counties.

The attacks have killed at least 11 security officers and injured seven others; at least five civilians have also been wounded.

During the attacks, the extremists kill, maim and destroy property in the name of religion and in alleged retaliation for the presence of the Kenyan military in Somalia.

On Tuesday alone, eight security officers were killed after their vehicle was hit by a landmine in Bodhei, Garissa County.

The victims were patrolling the area when the explosive, planted on the road by suspected Al Shabaab militants, blew up their vehicle.

Earlier in the day, a bus travelling from Nairobi to Mandera was shot at by gunmen suspected to be Al Shabaab members.
