Tribal Massacre: 16 women, children killed in Papua New Guinea

Hela,: Tribal massacre here in Papua New Guinea province killed at least 16 women and children, media reported, citing Hela Governor Philip Undialu.

The governor described this as a rear outbreak of tribal violence in the Highlands region.
“We’ve never heard of tribal fights happening in this area, it was a spillover of fighting happening in another area, that no-one expected,” Undialu said as quoted by the TV channel.
