Kenya clashes kill at least 48 in Coast Province

At least 48 people have been killed in ethnic clashes in south-eastern Kenya, police say. The clashes in Tana River district, Coast Province, took place late on Tuesday between the Orma and Pokomo groups, the region's police chief said. Most of the dead were women and children, many of whom were hacked to death with machetes, he said. The clash is the worst single incident since violence rocked the country after disputed polls four years ago.
