The deadly Somali armed group, Al-Shabab, has threatened to carry out more attacks on Kenya.
This latest threat is coming just after the group carried out a deadly attack on a Kenyan university killing 148 people on Thursday.
In a statement issued by the Al-Shabab on Saturday, the group warned Kenyans that their cities will “run red with blood”.
“No amount of precaution or safety measures will be able to guarantee your safety, thwart another attack or prevent another bloodbath from occurring in your cities,” the statement read.
The earlier attack carried out by four al-Shabab fighters in the Garissa University College campus appeared to be an extensively planned out attack, which the group says was to avenge Kenya’s involvement in Somalia.
Kenya’s interior ministry said the dead included 142 students, three policemen and three soldiers.
The ministry said on Saturday that five men–suspected accomplices–were arrested in connection to the attack.
Surviving students have been taken to a military camp, waiting to be bussed home as the university has been indefinitely closed.
