"We condemn in the strongest terms the heinous attack by al-Shabaab," State Department spokeswoman Jennifer Psaki told reporters during the daily press briefing. "There can be no place for appalling acts of violence such as this in any society," Psaki added. "We continue to work with Kenya to address security in Kenya and the region," Psaki said. 039 End HA 11:40 LOCAL TIME 08:40 GMT تغريد
