Two injured in explosions in N. Kenya

At least two people have been injured after unknown gunmen hurled explosives at a restaurant in the northern Kenyan town of Garissa.

According to Kenyan police sources, some people threw a hand grenade at a local food kiosk injuring two people who have been rushed to hospital.

The incident comes just two days after two people were injured after a hand grenade was hurled at them in the same town.

Grenade and gun attacks have increased in northern Kenya in recent days.

Garissa has witnessed a series of grenade and gun attacks since Kenya sent its troops to Somalia in 2011 to fight the Al-Shabab militia group.
