Kenya Red Cross: 38 people killed in Kenya clashes
None
Clashes between farmers and herders in southeastern Kenya escalated Monday with 38 people killed, including nine police officers, and a government official and the Kenya Red Cross suggested the military should be deployed to the area.
The tit-for-tat cycle of killings may be related to a redrawing of political boundaries and next year's general elections, the UN Humanitarian coordinator for Kenya, Aeneas C. Chuma, said late last month. However, on the surface the violence seems driven by competition for water, pasture and other resources, he said. (AP)
