Moyale
–Marsabit transportation has been crippled. The Trouble started after
the Gabra mobs blocked the only road connecting Moyale and Marsabit at
Torbi and held over 600 passengers hostage. Also, a Borana Mob along
with tribal militias retaliated and captured two Gabra owned trucks
carrying unspecified amounts of Gharri owned merchandize, were looted
and the trucks were both burned down.
However, hostages were freed by
security personnel, but, the Moyale Marsabit road still remains closed.
