NAIROBI, Kenya — Fifty-four people have been killed in Kenya’s northern region in tribal fighting that police say was started by a cattle raid, the Kenya Red Cross said Wednesday. Police said the attacks began Monday when armed raiders believed to be Pokots attacked a Turkana village and stole animals, killing seven people. Kenya’s interior minister said Wednesday he is deeply disappointed over the killings that happened even after regional politicians signed a peace accord in January.
