Kenya and Ethiopia Woyanne have agreed to flush out Oromo Liberation Front insurgents on their common border.
The deal was hammered out during a security meeting held at Hidi Lola Town in Ethiopia.
The rebels have been sneaking into Kenya across the porous boundary.
The Kenyan delegation was led by the Moyale district commissioner, Mr Victor Okioma, while the Ethiopian Woyanne team was led by Region Four provincial commissioner Abdulkadir Abdi Nura.
Mr Okioma said that the rebels destabilised security on the border and that Kenya had resolved to smoke them out of their hideouts.
He expressed satisfaction that communities living on the border were willing to provide information on the rebels to the authorities.
Mr Okioma said the meeting also assessed achievements by border security committees.
Mr Nura said they had granted amnesty to insurgents who surrendered themselves to Ethiopian Woyanne authorities.
