Caption: Civilians help to hold a water hose as firefighters tried to control a raging fire at a local supermarket in downtown Nairobi on January 28, 2008. Twelve bodies were recovered on January 30, 2009 from the supermarket which was completely destroyed by fire two days earlier, Kenya Red Cross official Davis Okoko said. Investigators are trying to establish the cause of the fire but witnesses said the high number of casualties may have been caused by gas canister blasts and the fact that some exits were allegedly blocked to prevent looting.
