"Deadly Tribal Violence Erupts in Papua New Guinea, Dozens Killed"

TL;DR Summary
At least 26 people were killed in tribal fighting in Papua New Guinea's Enga Province, with initial reports suggesting a death toll of 53 before being revised down. The violence, stemming from a battle between two tribes, has prompted police and defense forces to intervene in the remote and inhospitable terrain. Last year, the same tribes were involved in clashes that resulted in 60 deaths. Australia has pledged support for training police officers and security in Papua New Guinea.
