The UN has reported that over 36,000 people have fled to Kenya due to the ongoing conflict in Moyale, Ethiopia. Many of those displaced are reported to be women and children. The Kenyan Human Rights Commission stated that more than 15,000 individuals are being housed in eight temporary shelters, including local churches, schools, and mosques.
