The bodies of 17 Catholic pilgrims killed in a road crash near Salama arrived in Mombasa. The victims were en route to a shrine when the accident occurred.
The crash happened on a rural road in the Mombasa region. Local authorities confirmed the number of fatalities. The victims were part of a pilgrimage group traveling to a religious site.
This incident follows a similar road accident earlier this year that claimed the life of Veronica Ngandi, fiancée of Leonea Baraza. Baraza expressed his grief over her death, which occurred on the way to the Subukia shrine. The two tragedies highlight ongoing safety concerns on local roads.
