Mr Steven Pedo, one of the victims, said he and three others were travelling in the truck, which operates as a mobile wholesale shop supplying commodities to residents of remote villages along the Kenya-Ethiopia border.

A fragile peace along the Kenya-Ethiopia border has come under fresh strain after a Turkana herder was killed and a truck carrying goods and Sh600,000 in cash was waylaid, in what authorities say were retaliatory attacks by suspected militiamen from Ethiopia.

The incidents occurred along the Kibish corridor in Turkana County after a Nyangatom herder from Ethiopia was allegedly killed by Turkana peace spoilers who had crossed the border, triggering a retaliatory attack on Kenyan territory.
