Money transfers to Somalia frozen after attacks on university in Kenya

There are huge flows of money both ways between the neighboring nations, for trade and business, as well as in lifeline remittances to war-torn Somalia from relatives in the region.

The day-long seige on Garissa University, situated near the border with Somalia, claimed 148 lives, including 142 students, three police officers and three soldiers.

The massacre was Kenya’s deadliest attack since the 1998 bombing of the US embassy in Nairobi.
