Strengthening intelligence cooperation, joint operational planning and inter-agency coordination remains central to countering evolving terrorist threats and enhancing regional security. The strategic partnership between Kenya, the United Kingdom and the United States continues to advance these priorities through integrated intelligence capabilities and coordinated counter-terrorism efforts.
The partnership was reinforced during a visit to the Combined Joint Inter-Agency Task Force (CJIATF) at Manda by the British High Commissioner to Kenya, Matthew Baugh OBE, accompanied by Deputy High Commissioner Ed Barnett and British Defence Adviser Brigadier Olly Bryant.
During the engagement, the delegation received an operational briefing on the Centre’s capabilities, mission execution and contribution to counter-terrorism operations under Operation Amani Boni (OAB). Discussions focused on intelligence fusion, real-time information sharing, joint operational planning and inter-agency coordination as critical enablers of intelligence-led security operations.
