Does anyone know about the Kenya Tanzania Embassy Bombing?

Question

Me and my friends are doing a project on this subject. We have found everything we need except the terrorist motivation, if it was a state sponsored terrorism, and a narrative description of the attack. If you can answer any of the it would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

In the 1998 U.S. Embassy bombings (August 7, 1998), hundreds of people were killed in simultaneous car bomb explosions at the United States embassies in the East African capital cities of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and Nairobi, Kenya. The attacks, linked to local members of the al Qaeda terrorist network headed by Osama bin Laden, brought bin Laden and al Qaeda to international attention for the first time, and resulted in the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation placing bin Laden on its Ten Most Wanted list.
