A federal judge in Washington awarded more than $955 million to the victims and family members of victims of the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Nairobi, Kenya, and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
The judgments, issued on March 28, represent the latest in a series of high-dollar awards entered in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia against foreign governments accused of backing terrorist attacks—in this case, Iran and the Republic of Sudan. (The newly formed Republic of South Sudan is not a party.)
