Papua New Guinea: at least 64 dead in attack apparently linked to tribal conflicts. Sixty-four bodies were found along a stretch of road in Papua New Guinea's remote highlands in an attack.
The victims were likely tribal fighters who were ambushed by a rival group before dawn on Sunday, according to law enforcement. Tribal clashes, often sparked by territorial disputes and accusations of theft, have occurred for centuries in this part of the island. The influx of automatic weapons has made the clashes more deadly and intensified the violence.
