The Islamists routed from Somalia by Ethiopia are fleeing into Kenya, and now Kenyan police have arrested two Canadian citizens among them.

Two Somali Islamic fighters who claim to be Canadian have been arrested by Kenyan police, according to a newspaper report on Tuesday.

Ten fighters in all were arrested on Monday at the Liboi border crossing in Kenya as they tried to enter the country while fleeing Somalia, the Kenya Daily Nation reported.

Two were reportedly carrying Canadian passports, while the remaining eight were said to have Eritrean passports.
