SAS Soldier Who Killed 2 Terrorists During Kenya Attack To Get U.K High Honour by Explorers(m): 5:37am On Nov 15, 2019
SAS solider who killed two Islamic militants during a terror attack in Kenya will be given one of the UK’s highest honours.

He will be awarded a Conspicuous Gallantry Cross, a bravery medal second only to a Victoria Cross, for his response to gun and grenade attack by al-Shabaab terrorists on the DusitD2 hotel in Nairobi on January 15.

The terrorists killed 21 people, including British charity worker Luke Potter, before the bloodshed was brought to a stop.

The unnamed elite solider will be given the medal by the Queen later this month, The Sun reported.


He entered the complex without backup to help evacuate 700 people.

The bodies of the terrorists can be seen after the shooting.

The Special Air Service (SAS) is a special forces unit of the British Army. The SAS was founded in 1941 as a regiment, and later reconstituted as a corps in 1950. The unit undertakes a number of roles including covert reconnaissance, counter-terrorism, direct action and hostage rescue.

Can you be wiser than a UK? be pessimistic for once, why not see it as giving honor to the best graduating student in a university, he or she came to read but did that's and went the extra mile, terrorism is an enemy of peace, all country of the world dreads it, if Obama or Trump calls for a presidential press conference when the US forces kills a key member of a terrorist group, why can't this unnamed SAS soldier be honored. #Thinkaboutit
