Drought, high food prices, and conflict have lead to famine in many regions of Somalia. The United Nations held an emergency meeting to tackle these issues. But is it really going to change anything or will the world continue to turn a blind eye on deaths of millions in Africa? Follow Kristine on Twitter at http://twitter.com/Frazzie

Somalis flee war, drought [NBC 7-07-2011]

Weather conditions over the Pacific have interrupted seasonal rains for two consecutive seasons. Rains are not expected to return until September 2011. This drought, which is said to be 'the worst in 60 years', has caused a food crisis in the Horn of Africa that threatens the livelihood of more than 10 million people. The crisis is compounded by rebel activity around southern Somalia. The Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS-Net) declared an emergency for large areas in southern Somalia, southeastern Ethiopia, and northeastern Kenya, which could culminate in widespread famine if the current conditions aren't addressed. Other countries in and around the Horn of Africa, including Djibouti, Sudan, South Sudan, and parts of Uganda are also affected by a severe food crisis. - Like/Dislike, Comment, Favorite and share on Twitter, Facebook, and Google+ to get the word out on this video.

Deadly Draught-News Analysis-07-11-2011
Millions in need of lifesaving action: the place, Somalia: With nearly half the population teetering at the edge of starvation, why aren't countries doing enough to eradicate this problem, a country the UN declared as the "worst humanitarian crisis in Africa". In this news analysis, we ask why funds are appropriated for wars, for example, and not for people dying of starvation.

MaximsNewsNetwork: SOMALIA - REFUGEES FLEE VIOLENCE IN MOGADISHU (UNHCR)
MaximsNewsNetwork: 12 March 2020 - UNHCR: Somalia - The United Nations Refugee Agency, UNHCR, reports that thousands in Somalia have fled the latest violent clashes in Mogadishu which continue to claim civilian lives. So far this month 60 people, mostly civilians, have reportedly been killed and another 120 have been injured; UNHCR estimates over 100,000 Somalis have fled their homes this year alone. It is also estimated that 1.4 million Somalis are displaced inside the country and over a half million are refugees in neighbouring states, making it one of the largest refugee crises in the world. Many have found shelter in what has become a massive shanty town outside of Mogadishu on the road to Afgoye. SOUNDBITE (Somali) Halima Daaud, Displaced Person, Somalia: We have already moved away from our homes because of the daily violence, we already fled and now we are moving again. Here we have more problems - we dont know where to go. We are afraid to leave Mogadishu, we are afraid of the insects biting us and there are no good shelters to sleep in and the worst case scenario is looming. It may be safer there but the conditions are brutal. Despite the violence in Mogadishu many Somalis like Mako Hassan say they will try and survive in the city. SOUNDBITE (Somali) Mako Hassan, Displaced Person, Somalia: We previously moved from our home in Suqa Holaha. I have lived here for months. We endure the violence. Sometimes the fighting and mortar shells reach my home. We always hear the sound of gunfire, but we have survived so many times. Water, food and other essential items are very expensive and it is also dangerous just to try to obtain them. SOUNDBITE (Somali) Mako Hassan, Displaced Person, Somalia: My husband doesnt have a job, he cant help us. I sometimes work doing laundry for other families to earn some money so we can eat. We are in bad shape. We need help from the international community. ....................................... ................. ........................................ ...................
