The Somali militant group al-Shabaab has claimed responsibility for Sunday’s attack, in which about 50 gunmen rampaged through Mpeketoni, gunning people down, setting buildings on fire and killing patients in hospital beds.
The government vowed to hunt down the killers. President Uhuru Kenyatta has made no comment so far..
