Kenya said on Saturday it had given the United Nations three months to remove the camp housing hundreds of thousands of Somali refugees, as part of a get-tough response to the killing of 148 people by Somali gunmen at a Kenyan university
.The UNHCR said it was ready to work
with Kenyan authorities to "strengthen law enforcement" at Dadaab to
help protect refugees and Kenyans against possible intrusion by armed
groups. "We are thus urging the Kenyan authorities to give the matter
further consideration," it said.
