Rewards for Justice is offering a reward of up to $10 million for information on Mohamoud Abdi Aden and any other individual responsible for the 2019 attack by al-Shabaab terrorists on the DusitD2 Hotel complex in Nairobi, Kenya.

On the afternoon of January 15, 2019, al-Shabaab gunmen armed with explosives, automatic weapons, and grenades attacked the DusitD2 commercial center, a 6-building complex of shops, offices, and a hotel.

At least 21 people, including one U.S. citizen, were killed in the assault.

Al-Shabaab — an affiliate of the al-Qa’ida terrorist organization — released live updates throughout the attack via its official Shahada News Agency and issued a press release in which it stated that the attack was in response to guidance from then al-Qa’ida leader Ayman Zawahiri.
