Three almost simultaneous blasts in the main Somali district of the Kenyan capital Nairobi have left at least six people dead and scores injured.
"We are here at a crime scene. Of course we suspect it is a terrorist attack," Nairobi police commander Benson Kibue told reporters on Monday.
"The injuries number 25 - they are in various hospitals - and we have retrieved six bodies," he said.
The three blasts targeted two small restaurants and a local clinic in a particularly densely populated area of Eastleigh, an area often known as Little Mogadishu because of its predominantly Somali population.
Police were still trying to establish the type of explosives used, with Kibue saying one of the blasts might have been a homemade bomb and other witnesses at the scene of the different attacks saying one or more grenades were thrown.
Eastleigh has in recent years been the scene of several explosions usually attributed by the police to Islamist extremists.
The blasts came as people made their way home for the evening, some stopping for a meal.
The attack comes a week after six people died when assailants burst into a church in the Likoni district close to the port city of Mombasa and opened fire on worshippers.
The latest attacks have happened amid heightened warnings of a threat of Islamist violence in Kenya and despite boosted security in major cities.
