Terror bombing at Nairobi church
April 30, 2012
A suicide bombing at a Christian church in Nairobi, Kenya, killed at least one person and left 16 badly injured on Sunday morning, April 29.
The grenade blast inside God's House of Miracles International Church came just after the US embassy in Nairobi had warned about a heightened danger of terrorist incidents. The bombing is believed to be an act of retaliation because of the intervention of Kenyan troops in Somalia.
