Hundreds
of farmers attacked a village, killing at
least 48 people in south eastern Kenya
in an escalation of clashes between
the farming and pastoral communities
over land and resources. Some people were burned to death in
their houses, while others were hacked
to death or shot with arrows. The majority of those killed were
women and children. A plane carrying tourists to Kenya's
Masai Mara game park crashed shortly
after take off, killing the two pilots as
well as two German tourists. The Czechoslovakian-made Let-410
propeller plane appeared unstable as it
took off from the Ngerende airstrip in
the north of the world famous safari
reserve, one Masai Mara camp
manager said. It was believed to be carrying 12
passengers and two crew.
