The Red Cross said 52 people are missing following a suspected Shabaab attack on the coastal town of Mpeketoni on June 15; the next day 15 more people were killed in an attack on a nearby village. President Kenyatta claimed that the attack was politically motivated and not the work of Shabaab. Witnesses claimed that the 50-some attackers carried Shabaab flags and were led by a "white man." Police shot two suspected terrorists in Garissa. Suspected Shabaab terrorist Abdirizack Muktar Edow was denied bail.
