The Kenya Forest Service (KFS) has urged Kenyans to stop spreading misleading information about the destruction of Karura Forest in Kiambu County.

KFS, in a statement on Wednesday, July 4, urged Kenyans to first seek clarification before sharing any information regarding the ongoing works inside the forest.

This is after a video circulating online purportedly depicted a destroyed portion of Karura Forest.

The agency explained that the video, filmed by a cyclist, showed areas designated for harvesting exotic tree species.
