Five Kenyan police killed in roadside bomb attack

Five Kenyan policemen have been killed after their vehicle hit a roadside bomb in the north-eastern town of Liboi, near the border with Somalia.

The attack happened almost at the exact spot where four officers were killed in a similar attack yesterday, which has been claimed by al-Shabab militants.
  
Five other officers were killed in a separate bombing incident on Monday in neighbouring Mandera county.
 
Al-Shabab has staged numerous attacks in Kenya in recent years. 

The Islamist militants want Kenya to withdraw its troops who are serving under the AU mission in Somalia (Amisom).
