正义奖励计划悬赏高达 500 万美元，征集与 1998 年美国驻肯尼亚和坦桑尼亚大使馆爆炸案有关的信息。1998 年 8 月 7 日，“基地”恐怖组织(AQ)成员同时轰炸了美国驻内罗毕和达累斯萨拉姆大使馆。袭击造成 224 人死亡，5000 多人受伤，并导致使馆建筑严重受损，附近建筑被毁。
在内罗毕，恐怖分子在大使馆停车库附近引爆了一辆装有炸药的卡车，造成 213 人死亡，其中包括 44 名大使馆雇员（12 名美国人和 32 名外国人），另有 5000 多人受伤，其中包括美国大使普鲁登丝·布什内尔。
在达累斯萨拉姆，恐怖分子驾驶一辆装满炸药的卡车试图撞上大使馆大门，向大使馆开枪，然后引爆炸药。 由此引发的爆炸造成 11 人死亡，85 人受伤。
下列个人因与袭击有关而在美国联邦法院受审并被定罪：
