Deadly shooting has been reported in Kenya's coastal district of Lamu.
Houses have been set alight in Hindi, near Mpeketoni, and a police station has been attacked at Gamba.
The Kenyan Red Cross said 13 people had been killed in the two incidents, according to the (BBC).
The Somali al-Shabab group has previously mounted a number of attacks in the region.
However it was not immediately clear who was responsible for the latest shooting.
Witnesses said about a dozen armed men had appeared in the trading centre in Hindi, Lamu County, late on Saturday evening and opened fire.
The Red Cross said another nine people - eight civilians and one police officer - were killed in Gamba, and one person was also missing.
Attacks in the Lamu area early last month killed at least 60 people, as gunmen descended on hotels and a police station.
Five people died in a later attack by an armed gang on the village of Witu, about 15km about (9 miles) from Mpeketoni.
Kenya's President Uhuru Kenyatta has blamed the attacks on political networks, despite al-Shabab claiming responsibility.
Opposition parties have dismissed the president's claims.
