Mwanajeshi wa Kikosi cha Ulinzi cha Kenya (KDF) Jumanne alijeruhiwa vibaya na wengine watano walipata majeraha kidogo wakati gari walilokuwa wakisafiria lilipogongwa na Kikosi cha Explosive Devise huko Boni, Kaunti ya Lamu.
KDF ilisema kwamba kikundi hicho kilikuwa kikifanya kazi chini ya Operesheni Amani Boni wakati wa doria ya kawaida kati ya Milimani na Baure katika Kaunti ya Lamu walipokutana na shambulio la IED lililopangwa na watu wanaoshukiwa kuwa magaidi wa al-Shabaab.
Wafanyikazi waliojeruhiwa walipelekwa Nairobi kwa ndege.
Msemaji Kanali Esther Wanjiku alisema KDF itaendelea kushirikiana na mashirika mengine katika kudumisha shughuli katika eneo la Boni.
Hakutoa maelezo zaidi juu ya shambulio hilo, ambalo lilitokea karibu saa 9 asubuhi.
Hii hufanyika baada ya utulivu katika eneo hilo kutokana na visa kama hivyo.
Utulizaji huo ulikuwa nje ya shughuli zinazoendelea katika eneo hilo ambalo linajumuisha mashirika mengi.
Mnamo Mei mwaka huu, tukio kama hilo lilisababisha kupoteza askari angalau wanne.
Eneo hilo liko karibu na mpaka wa Kenya na Somalia, ambao umekuwa ukishambuliwa na magaidi katika miezi iliyopita.
Msitu wa Boni ni eneo la operesheni kwani serikali ya kitaifa tangu 2015 imeendesha zoezi la usalama la mashirika mengi lililopewa jina la Linda Boni, ambalo linalenga kuwafukuza wanamgambo wa al Shabaab waliojificha hapo.
Licha ya operesheni endelevu, wanamgambo hao wamekuwa wakigoma baada ya kupanda vilipuzi kwenye barabara zinazotumiwa na vyombo na magari mengine huko.
Kwa mfano, mnamo Aprili mwaka huu, watu wawili waliuawa wakati lori walilokuwa wakisafiria likiendesha IED kama hiyo.
Wawili hao walikuwa sehemu ya timu inayojenga ukuta wa mpaka ambao unakusudia kuwazuia wanamgambo hao kuvuka na kuingia Kenya.
Mnamo Machi 23, mtu mmoja alikufa wakati boti ya maji ilielekea Kambi ya Usalama, ambapo ukuta wa mpaka wa Kenya na Somalia unajengwa, iligonga IED inayoshukiwa kupandwa na wanamgambo.
Gari hilo, ambalo lilikuwa na dereva na kondakta, lilikuwa likivusha maji kwa ajili ya ujenzi wa ukuta wa usalama wa mpaka wakati tukio hilo lilipotokea mwendo wa saa 7:30 asubuhi.
Mnamo Januari 2016, maafisa watano wa Polisi waliuawa wakati watatu walijeruhiwa wakati lori la Kitengo cha Usafirishaji wa Haraka (RDU) lilipogonga IED inayoshukiwa kando ya barabara ya Hindi-Kiunga huko Lamu.
Maafisa hao walikuwa wakielekea Kambi ya Usalama wakati tukio hilo lilitokea kilomita chache tu kutoka Milimani, ambayo iko ndani ya msitu mnene wa Boni.
Mnamo Juni 14, 2015, zaidi ya wapiganaji 60 wa Al-Shabaab walivamia kambi ya Baure ya KDF karibu na Bar’goni huko Lamu mwendo wa saa 5.45 asubuhi.
Karibu wanamgambo 18 na maafisa wawili wa KDF waliuawa na idadi ya silaha, pamoja na kamera ya video, ilipatikana.
