At least 100 camels have died after after drinking contaminated water, reports Kenyan newspaper The Nation.

The newspaper adds that the event has plunged the entire village in Marsabit County, near the Kenya-Ethiopia border, "into mourning".

The camels drank water from an abandoned well, veterinary officer Dr Shanda Guyo told The Nation.

He added that samples of the water were being tested to ascertain the exact cause of the deaths.
