The Kenya Society for the Blind (KSB) yesterday joined survivors, families, and other stakeholders in marking the 28th anniversary of the 1998 U.S. Embassy bomb blast in Nairobi, a tragedy that claimed more than 200 lives and injured thousands.
The commemoration, held at the August 7th Memorial Park, honored victims of the attack and highlighted the long-term impact of the bombing on survivors, particularly those who lost their sight as a result of severe eye injuries.
“For many, the tragedy marked the beginning of a challenging journey towards rebuilding their lives,” the society stated
Adding, “following the bombing, we played critical role in supporting survivors through rehabilitation orientational and mobility training that enabled many to regain their independence, confidence and dignity,”
