On the 26th Anniversary of the U.S. Embassy Bombings in Kenya and Tanzania


On the commemoration of the August 7, 1998 U.S. Embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania, we honor the memory of those who lost their lives on that tragic day. These horrific terrorist attacks killed 224 people, including 12 Americans serving our country overseas and 34 Kenyans and 10 Tanzanians who were part of our State Department family. More than 4,500 other individuals were injured that day.
Every year, this solemn day reminds us of the profound resilience and bravery displayed by the survivors, first responders, and communities in the immediate aftermath of those bombings. Let this commemoration serve as a reminder of our collective responsibility to fight terrorism in all its forms and build a more safe and just world.
