«Breaking News» Nairobi 'terror attack' at Kenyan hotel amid explosions and gunfire

An upscale complex in Kenya's capital is under attack, with an explosion and heavy gunfire.

Witnesses and police at the Nairobi complex - which includes a large hotel known as DusitD2, banks and offices - are calling it a terror attack. 

Several vehicles are burning while people are being rushed and carried from the scene. One man came out covered in blood as nearby university students were evacuated.

Four ambulances and a fire truck arrived at the scene as fleeing office workers said colleagues were still huddled under their desks.

'I just started hearing gunshots, and then started seeing people running away raising their hands up and some were entering the bank to hide for their lives,' a woman working in a neighbouring building said. She also heard two explosions, she said.

Nairobi police commander Philip Ndolo had earlier said they had cordoned off the area around Riverside Drive, where the dusitD2 hotel is located, due to a suspected robbery.

But police are not ruling out a militant attack, police spokesman Charles Owino told Citizen Television.

'We have to go for the highest incident that could take place. The highest incident we have is a terror (attack),' he said.

Cars were seen burning at the scene amid reports of explosions and heavy gunfire

'We are under attack,' another person in an office inside the complex told Reuters, then hung up. Smoke could be seen rising from the area and a Reuters reporter saw several vehicles on fire near the entrance to the complex.

What appears to be plainclothes security forces are seen inching their way toward the scene, guns in hand. 

Somali Islamist militant group al Shabaab have claimed responsibility for an attack in the Kenya capital of Nairobi, their spokesman told Reuters.

'We are behind the attack in Nairobi. The operation is going on. We shall give details later,' said Abdiasis Abu Musab, al Shabaab's military operations spokesman.  

The attack immediately reminds many Kenyans of the Westgate Mall attack in Nairobi in 2013, when al-Shabab extremists burst into the luxury shopping center, hurling grenades and starting a days-long siege that left 67 people dead.

The country faced a spate of attacks after it sent its army into Somalia in October 2011 to fight the Islamist Shabaab group, affiliated to Al-Qaeda.

On April 2, 2015, another Shabaab attack killed 148 people at the university in Garissa, eastern Kenya.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
