Hundreds of Ethiopians fled into Kenya on Thursday after fighting broke out in Moyale, a border town that straddles Ethiopia and Kenya, according to reports from local officials and the Kenya Red Cross. The violence began on Wednesday and continued through Thursday morning, with gunfire still audible on the Ethiopian side of the town. At least two people were injured: a police officer was hit by shrapnel but not seriously hurt, while a woman sustained a gunshot wound to the neck and received medical treatment. Kenya's Marsabit county commissioner Stanley Kamande said many displaced individuals are staying with relatives or in villages within Kenyan territory on the Moyale side. The Kenya Red Cross is assessing the situation to determine how many people were affected and what their needs are, although no formal camp has been established yet for those who fled.
