Somalia’s al-Qaeda-linked al Shebab militants on Monday said they carried out an attack on a town on Kenya’s coast 50 dead, and warned tourists and foreigners to stay away from Kenya.

A statement from the group said the attack was revenge for the “Kenyan government’s brutal oppression of Muslims in Kenya through coercion, intimidation and extrajudicial killings of Muslim scholars.”

It also condemned the “Kenyan military’s continued invasion and occupation of our Muslim lands and the massacre of innocent Muslims in Somalia.”
