Nairobi (AFP) - Some 75 people have been killed in four days of cattle raids and revenge attacks in northern Kenya, the Red Cross said Wednesday.

"Over the last four days close to 75 Kenyans have died. Is it worth it, and what for?" Kenya Red Cross chief Abbas Gullet said of the violence in northern Kenya's Turkana and East Pokot districts, which has since spread to nearby districts of Marsabit, Samburu and Baringo.
