“Four Al-Shabaab terrorists were neutralised by Kenya’s Elite Special Operations Group (SOG) early this morning, 2nd June 2025, in Najo and Guracho areas of Garissa County.
The success followed a meticulously planned intelligence-led operation. The militants were first spotted by a surveillance drone, after which SOG units tracked and engaged them.
A fierce exchange of fire ensued, resulting in four terrorists being eliminated. Recovered at the scene were AK-47 rifles, a PKM machine gun, multiple rounds of ammunition, and communication radios.
This marks yet another major victory in a series of well-coordinated operations that continue to cripple Al-Shabaab activity.
The SOG, in close collaboration with other security agencies and the local community, remains unwavering in its mission to safeguard the lives and security of Kenyans.” said Counter Terrorism policing
