Mr. Ban Ki-moon also affirmed that those responsible for the above attack must be brought to trial.

Earlier in the day, 28 people on a bus carrying 60 people en route to Kenya's capital Nairobi were killed in Mandera near the Kenya-Somalia border.

The men claimed to be al-Shabaab militants and demanded that those in the vehicle recite the Koran and kill those who refused.

Kenyan Presidential Adviser Abdikadir Mohamed said the incident was aimed at inciting a religious war in Kenya between Muslims and people of other religions./.
