Two Italian nuns were abducted early this morning in El Wak, a border town in northeastern province Kenya. The gun men crossed the border, abducted the nuns in their homes andn returned with them back to Somali into a region of Somali controlled by Islamists.

Just last Friday, a Kenyan man who had converted to Islam and lived in Somali was shot dead in Beledhawo. He lived in a village called Dhabad and was shot as he was walking back to his house.No details about his name or where in Kenya he was from are available.
