It is most distressing that a university campus was attacked in this manner. Utterly condemnable,” Modi tweeted. At least 147 people were massacred when Somalia’s Shebab Islamist group raided a university in the country’s deadliest attack since the US Embassy bombings in 1998. Masked gunmen began the assault before dawn, using grenades to blast open the gates of the university in the northeastern town of Garissa, near the border with war-torn Somalia, before attacking students as they slept.

Terror attack in Kenya is horrific. It is most distressing that a university campus was attacked in this manner. Utterly condemnable.
