WARNING: This report contains images which some viewers may find distressing.

Tribal violence in Kenya's Rift Valley is spreading.At least 10 people were killed in Naivasha, a town some 60 kms (37 miles) south of Nakuru, capital of the Rift Valley. The continuing unrest overshadowed a meeting between former U.N. chief Kofi Annan and opposition leader Raila Odinga to try to resolve the month-long crisis that was triggered by the disputed re-election of President Mwai Kibaki. Hundreds have died in the turmoil and quarter of a million more have been forced from their homes. The unrest has shattered the east African nation's image of stability and damaged one of the continent's most promising economies
