afrol News, 28 May - The Norwegian embassy in Kenya was to restore operations at its embassy in Kenya, following the evacuation yesterday because of a bomb threat.

The foreign ministry officials in Oslo announced that, "Operations are due to resume this afternoon," adding that the move was decided after the Kenyan police had assured safety having searched the embassy building in Nairobi with bomb dogs and security had been tightened.

The embassy building was evacuated yesterday, compelling other building users such as the Swedish embassy also to temporarily suspend operations.

According to report, an unknown group with alleged ties to al-Qaeda had sent the threat in an e-mail signed with the signature Worrier Brave, that was also copied to the media.

The email further claimed that Norway was supporting Kenya to claim a few islands on the Somali coast, for selfish reasons of exploring and exploiting in the area.

The Kenyan police have however dismissed the threat, saying it could not be genuine, though the search would continue.

Despite the assurances, the Norwegian nationals in Kenya have been urged to be on the alert.
