DADAAB, Kenya — Marauding gangs and criminals are attacking Somali famine refugees more frequently as they flee across the border to Kenyan camps, but Kenyan police say they don’t have enough manpower to stop them.
The lack of manpower underscores a larger problem for Kenya: Officials there say they are being overwhelmed by the influx of tens of thousands of Somali refugees and can’t stem the attacks. One 30-year-old woman who watched two of her five children die as they trekked through Somalia was raped after reaching what she hoped would be safe Kenyan soil.
