Johannesburg, Ramadan 26, 1437, July 01, 2016, SPA -- Six people died Friday when gunmen sprayed two passenger buses with bullets in north-eastern Kenya, the newspapers Daily Nation and Standard reported, according to dpa. The attack, which the reports attributed to the Somali group al-Shabaab, occurred between Elwak and Wargadud in Mandera county. A police reservist who was on board to escort the passengers was among those killed. Another reservist was injured. Officials were unable to give the total number of injured victims. Officials said non-locals living in the county would not be allowed to travel by bus until the end of Ramadan - which comes next week - due to the security threat posed by al-Shabaab. --SPA 14:55 LOCAL TIME 11:55 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
