Women displaced by violence, including one who fled a torched church where at least 18 people died, carry belongings towards Eldoret, Western Kenya, January 3, 2008. As Kenya enters a fifth day of protests and ethnic violence that have killed more than 300 people following the re-election of President Mwai Kibaki, many of Eldoret's disaffected youth are furious at what they say was a stolen vote.
