Following murderous attacks by Islamists in Kenya against Christian, this news from Kenya:
Muslim leaders in Kenya have agreed to form self-defence groups to protect churches following a deadly attack on Sunday.
Fifteen people were killed in the raids on churches in Garissa, a town near the border with Somalia.
Kenya’s border region has been tense since it sent troops into Somalia to pursue al-Shabab Islamist militants.

“We decided as solidarity that the Muslim youth will provide a vigilante service to the churches not only in Garissa but in any other places that the Christians may deem fit.”
He said that it was now up to the Muslim leaders in Garissa to organise out how the estimated 30 churches in the town would be protected.
“Muslims felt that because those Christians are a minority in their domain they must be protected at all cost.”
