Tension is high in Janale town following deadly tribal clashes in the area on Tuesday.
Residents have told Radio Dalsan about the clash of two tribal militias in the area yesterday.
Efforts by local leaders to stop the fighting and bring together the warring parties on the negotiating table was not fruitful.
Armed clashes often happen between various Somali tribes over pasture and water for their livestock in the remote areas of the recuperating war torn state.
