14 Riverside Attack: Videos of Heavily Armed Gunmen Storming DusitD2 Complex Emerge

CCTV footage showing how heavily armed terrorists stormed dusitD2 complex on 14 Riverside Drive in Nairobi's Westlands area have emerged online.

CCTV cameras manning the complex perimeter show that the gunmen were heavily armed and dressed in combat gear.

They arrived in two cars, one of them left outside and the second one detonated in the parking lot.

One of the attackers has been clearly captured by the cameras.

An operation by security officers drawn from various teams including the elite Recce Squad and Kenya Defense Forces (KDF) is still ongoing.

Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i says security teams have retaken control of the 14 Riverside Drive complex even as he assured that the country is safe.

“We have secured all buildings that had been affected by this event. The security teams have evacuated scores of Kenyans and other nationalities from the buildings."

“We are now in the final stages of mopping up the area and securing evidence and documents in consequences of these unfortunate events,” says Matiang'i.

Here are the videos.

Truth be told: It's disturbing to notice that about 9/10 of people seen Escaping or being Rescued from this Hotel are FAT Cats (while the rest of the Kenya population is STARVING). It's like "Corrupts cartels being Smoked out." Sorry!

this can be traced to corruption in soo many ways, most people are happy to see the terrorists killed but they should have been intercepted way before getting that far, they seem very relaxed and confident almost certain it will take kenyan forces a long time to get to them.. we do not see anybody resigning for failure to prevent this attack. Resources stolen from the government that could be going into enhancing our border and also undercover capabilities end up buying land in Runda and lovington

Bastards! (Imara, pole for matusi lakini this had my blood pressure pumping!). These terrorists are basically cowards and they will rot in hell. I don't believe any God would condone the killing of innocent souls. If they perished and I hear they did, they sure are not headed towards the gates of heaven (contrary to their beliefs), but are already roasting in hell where they belong. Nasty!

@Sukari,Ihear that if muslims kill infidels in the name of Allah, they go straight to heaven and are rewarded with 7 beautiful virgins.Is thus true?Iam sure you have heard about this...
And their interpretation of an infidel is any non muslim.

Diana, unlike you, I am not deluded, just human. So when sh**t hits the fan, the mask slips and the human me rears it's head! In this case the terrorists. Now that you have schooled on this, how are you channelling yours....is it the Kikuyu's and Kale's fault again?

@Jamrak, we should begin by rounding up all the Somalis in Kenya especially Nairobi and send them back to their country. For decades, we've helped Ethiopians and Somalis at their hour of need as refugees. These goons have mercilessly slaughtered innocent Kenyans with impunity: Westgate mall, travellers are murdered on the road side when these boys hijack public buses, Garrisa University, and many more reckless waste of human lives. Enough is enough!

@Sukari: Nitajifanya padri bandia (fake padre) halafu utakuja kuniomba msamaha kanisani kwa kutumia neno ulilotumia hapa. Dada, nakufanyia masihara (just joking) tu.

Kila wakati ninapoona jina lako :Sukari" ninamkumbuka dada mmoja Mmarekani ambaye nilifanya kazi pamoja naye hapa Marekani ambaye alikuwa "mkali kweli."

@Maxiley: Ukijitolea mhanga (ready to die for what you believe), utapewa bikira 72 Si bikira 7 kama ulivyosema.

@Jamrak..to you, I can be both...Sukari or chumvi..whatever takes your fancy! Now, I don't get your beef on a non starter issue. Your Clone Diane told me to channel my anger elsewhere and she normally directs hers at two particular tribes. Now you tell me where the none issue comes from. As for being empty, I suggest you, my little ignorant self is the only empty debe in the room if you think we can fight corruption and ills of society by bombing the innocents. Educate your palate then lets talk. IGNORANT.
