Kenyan President William Ruto recently announced that two Kenyan land borders with Somalia will be re-opened in April almost 15 years after they were closed because of attacks by militant group al-Shabab.

Ruto said the intention to re-open two crossings follows years of security assessments, adding that there will be a heavy deployment of security forces to ensure the move does not compromise safety.The border was closed in October 2011, when the East African nation launched a major military incursion into Somalia to push back al-Shabab - an al-Qaeda affiliate, from its border.
