THREE more people were feared dead early yesterday in the coastal region of Tana River in southeast Kenya after 38 others were massacred on Monday.
Xinhua quoted officials of Kenya Red Cross Society (KRCS) as saying that they witnessed fresh attacks early yesterday in Semikaro, Laini, Nduru and Shirikisho villages of Tana Delta where the two farming and pastoral communities have been feuding over natural resources.
"Hundreds of attackers have regrouped and the attack is ongoing with houses on fire and people fleeing. The humanitarian situation is becoming more and more dire as KRCS continues to respond," KRCS spokesperson, Nelly Muluka, said."We are not giving out any death toll until our team, including the police have verified," Muluka told Xinhua by telephone.
