Rains awaited in Kenya's Rift Valley to ease land conflict 

Herders and large-scale farmers in parts of Kenya's Rift Valley are desperately waiting for seasonal rains to ease the prolonged drought and the current conflict over grazing land in which more than 30 people have died.  

Kenya's military and police have been working for a month to disarm and drive the hundreds of herders and their animals out of ranches they have invaded.

But their actions appear to have rather escalated the violence.
