"I hereby confirm what has been issued by Al-Qaida political office regarding our responsibility for the Mombasa attacks in Kenya," an Al-Qaida spokesman said today on Qatar's Al-Jazeera television. The spokesman, Suleiman Abu Ghaith, as quoted by the Reuters news agency, was the first Al-Qaida official to claim responsibility for the twin attacks on Israeli targets in Mombasa on November 28, including a hotel bombing in which 13 people were killed. The other attack was an abortive missile strike on an Israeli Arkia jet as it took off from Mombasa on that same morning. Israeli and Kenyan authorities have pointed a finger at Al-Qaida, but the statement on Al-Jazeera was the first time the group was admitting to responsibility for these attacks.
