Kenya: resorts on fire

A fire of vast proportions broke out in Watamu, one of Kenya's tourist resorts most frequented by European tourists. The Italian resort Barracuda was particularly affected, abandoned by Italian tourists who managed to save themselves. The Italian Embassy in Nairobi, through the honorary consulate in Malindi and in coordination with the foreign ministry's crisis unit, is following developments in the situation. At the moment there are no casualties reported. But two Italians were hospitalized in Malindi.
