 Kenyan building collapse near Nairobi kills six people The collapse of an unfinished eight-storey building in Kenya has killed six people. The structure fell on Friday morning in Syokimau on the outskirts of Nairobi. Construction workers were reportedly at the site when the building’s uppermost concrete slab gave way, bringing down part of the structure, according to a preliminary report from Nairobi City County’s emergency team. The report did not establish why the slab failed. The Kenya Red Cross initially reported that three people had been rescued and one person was reported missing. TV reports later said that five people had been pulled alive from the rubble and taken to hospital. The emergency report said the number of workers present when the building fell had not been confirmed, leaving open the possibility that others were trapped. Firefighters and specialist rescue teams were continuing to search for survivors.

 OPERATION HADIN KAI SUSTAINS INTELLIGENCE-LED OFFENSIVE, NEUTRALISES 15 TERRORISTS NORTH-WEST OF PULKA


The Joint Task Force (North East), Operation HADIN KAI (OPHK), has recorded another operational success with the neutralisation of 15 terrorists in a precision air strike north-west of Pulka in Gwoza LGA of Borno State, underscoring the sustained pressure being exerted on terrorist elements across the theatre.


The operation was conducted at about 11:50 p.m. on 23 October 2026, following credible intelligence and confirmed sightings of terrorist movements in the general area of Pulka. The precision strike was subsequently followed by ground operations to exploit the area and consolidate the operational gains.


The successful engagement highlights the effectiveness of intelligence-driven targeting and coordinated military action in disrupting terrorist movements and degrading their operational capabilities. It also reflects the unwavering commitment of Operation HADIN KAI to denying terrorist groups freedom of action and preventing them from threatening communities within the theatre.


The operation forms part of the sustained offensive posture of troops, supported by effective intelligence gathering and coordinated employment of available military capabilities. Through these efforts, the Theatre Command continues to maintain pressure on terrorist elements, disrupt their activities and strengthen the security environment across the North East.


Operation HADIN KAI remains resolute in its mission to defeat terrorism and insurgency, protect law-abiding citizens and create the conditions necessary for the restoration of normalcy and socio-economic activities in affected communities. The Theatre Command reassures the public that troops will sustain the momentum of ongoing operations with vigilance, determination and professionalism.


The Theatre Command also calls on members of the public to sustain their cooperation with security agencies by providing timely and credible information on suspicious movements and activities. The continued partnership between the military and the civilian population remains essential to consolidating operational gains and achieving lasting peace and security across the North East.
