 | WARNING : The whole area of eastern Kenya located within 150 km from the Somali border, ie most of Garissa and Wajir counties as well as all of Mandera county, should be avoided. Not only can rivalries between local tribes end in blood, but regular incursions by Al-Shabaab militiamen from across the country. Somalia aim to commit attacks more specifically targeting non-Muslims. |
