Papuan tribal warriors armed with bows and arrows and improvised shields move into position as tribal clashes erupted anew between two tribes in Kwamki Lama village in Mimikaa, a district located in Indonesia's restive Papua province, on June 18, 2012.
Agence France Presse reports — Two tribesmen were killed, one critically injured and several policemen injured while three police vehicles were torched as tribal clashes erupted in Indonesia's restive Papua province on Monday.
Police and military troops were overwhelmed by the fighting, which was sparked by the death of a tribesman in a road accident in early June.
