Gunmen attacked a shopping center in Kenya's capital歌词

[00:00.10]From VOA Learning English, this is In The News.
[00:10.24]It has been a week since gunmen attacked a shopping center in Kenya's capital, Nairobi.
[00:18.67]The attack left more than 70 people dead.
[00:23.07]The Kenyan Red Cross said Thursday that about 60 others were still missing.
[00:30.70]The attack left many people feeling powerless and shocked.
[00:36.68]But instead of hiding at home, Kenyans have come out to donate food, clothing, their own blood and money.
[00:46.89]The country appears more united because of the attack.
[00:52.70]The violence at the Westgate shopping mall lasted four days.
[00:57.74]During that time, medical workers offered help to victims and security forces at a nearby community center.
[01:08.24]Those seeking assistance often had to run for cover as gunshots and explosions were heard.
[01:16.81]A small army of volunteers came to the center.
[01:24.54]They provided food, medical services and emotional support to an endless line of people.
[01:33.46]Vimal Shah helped to direct the community center operation.
[01:38.45]He says so many people wanted to feed Kenyan security forces or help the victims that he had to turn people away.
[01:49.52]Nzioka Waita works for Safaricom.
[01:53.42]In just two days, the communications company collected more than $700,000 for the Kenyan Red Cross.
[02:03.61]"This is the Kenya I know and I grew up knowing.
[02:06.84]One that was built on the spirit of ‘Harambee,' spirit of togetherness.
[02:11.24]So you know, I am pleasantly surprised in how quickly the funds have come together,
[02:20.59]but not entirely surprised that we've pulled together from the various communities and religious affiliations."
[02:32.63]He also says there has been huge support from the many Kenyans who live overseas.
[02:39.37]But the mall attack has also incited some tension in Kenya.
[02:45.65]The Somali Islamist group al-Shabab claimed responsibility for the attack.
[02:52.69]Some reports say the attackers had freed some Muslims, but executed other people.
[03:01.32]After those stories appeared, there was criticism of Muslims and Somalis on social networking websites.
[03:10.52]There are still tribal tensions left from the Kenyan elections earlier this year.
[03:18.48]Vimal Shah says the crisis last weekend brought the nation together.
[03:25.23]But he hopes that Kenyans do not start fearing one another after seeing such violence.
[03:33.18]"This is pure terrorism.
[03:35.19]This is not about religion.
[03:36.99]This is not about one religion against another religion.
[03:40.04]And I think Kenyans stand together.
[03:42.06]We've got all different tribes coming together,
[03:45.49]all different people coming together, and saying, ‘United we stand, divided we fall.'"
[03:50.15]Naima Amir collects money for St. John Ambulance Kenya, a medical aid group.
[03:57.08]She says the mall attack shows that Kenyans have closed the wounds from the country's 2007 elections.
[04:06.75]"People have learned to appreciate peace.
[04:08.79]They have learned to appreciate each other.
[04:11.49]And the diversity within ourselves is a strength and not a line to divide the country."
[04:18.02]Naima Amir is a Muslim.
[04:20.27]She describes the attack as "senseless violence" that has nothing to do with Islam.
[04:27.64]On Tuesday, Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta also appealed for unity.
[04:34.52]He declared that Kenya would defeat "the monster of terrorism," one that wanted to tear the country apart.
[04:43.81]And that's In The News from VOA Learning English.
[04:49.61]I'm Steve Ember.
