A hotel and office complex in an upscale area of the Kenyan capital Nairobi were hit by two explosions on Tuesday, with live footage also capturing the sound of gunfire in the area.
A spokesperson for the police said they are treating the incident as a terrorist attack, CGTN Africa reports.
"We are under attack," another witness to the incident in the Dusit hotel told Reuters.
The Nairobi police commander Philip Ndolo said they had cordoned off the area around Riverside Drive due to a suspected robbery.
Footage from the scene shows cars on fire and injured people being helped away from the scene.
