A manhunt is underway for two alleged Shabaab members who escaped police at the Masjid Mosque raid on Sunday and are suspected of efforts to radicalize Muslim youth in Mombasa. Sources in Kenya claim that the gathering at the mosque was being used to bring together newly recruited jihadists from cells in Eldoret, Kisumu, and Busia. One person has been confirmed dead in fresh protests in Mombasa after a funeral procession for a man killed in Sunday's raid turned violent. Elsewhere in Mombasa, an IED exploded at a primary school but did not cause any casualties.
