The terrorist who are claiming they did this are saying it is not connected to what is happening in the Middle East.

I think they were saying this is not because of what Trump did. Of course mudslimes all worship a rock.

It won’t matter. If our people get hurt there’s 51 targets left. Or none. EOS

“There was an attack, but they have been repulsed,” Irungu Macharia, the commissioner for Lamu, where the base is situated, told Agence France-Presse. The official did not say whether there had been any casualties.

So far, all pics seem to show one column of smoke, possibly from the car bomb? It “could” be something bigger, though, but I doubt multiple aircraft are burning unless more “grievous” pics or other confirmation come in...
