Israel-Palestine war: Kenya says all citizens accounted for
A plume of black smoke rises above Gaza City's skyline during an Israeli air strike on October 8, 2023. The death toll surged to almost 1,000 since Palestinian militant group Hamas launched its massive surprise attack on Israel with a barrage of rockets and a massive ground assault, officials on both sides said on October 8.
Kenya says it has accounted for all its nationals in Israel, even though officials say they have opened lines for distress calls.
Roseline Njogu, the Principal Secretary for Diaspora Affairs, said no Kenyan living or working in Israel has been hurt, even as the rocket battles continued in Gaza between Israeli forces and the Hamas militant group.
