Kenya: 14 Killed in Al-Shabab Attack 
-------------------------------------


 
In Kenya, at least 14 people were killed when the militant group
al-Shabab attacked a residential compound with guns and grenades. The
victims were mostly quarry workers who lived in the compound near the
Somali border. Al-Shabab has staged a series of attacks in Kenya
following Kenya's 2011 invasion of Somalia. The massacre comes just
weeks before President Obama is due to visit Kenya.
