Across Somaliland, its neighbouring Somali state of Puntland and in southern Somalia, a tragedy is unfolding, in which 6.2 million Somalis (more than half the population) are in need of urgent food assistance.

Mother allowed 4-year-old son to starve to death then kept mummified body in bedroom, Bradford, Britain - 03 Oct 2013
A mother has been found guilty of manslaughter after allowing her 4-year-old son to starve to death before keeping mummified body in her bedroom. Hamzah Khan's mummified remains were discovered at Amanda Hutton's squalid Bradford home almost two years after he died in December 2009. During her trial Hutton claimed that her son was a fussy eater and difficult child who starved himself. However, the prosecution alleged that Hutton was a "nasty drunk" who cared more for alcohol than her son, who suffered starvation, punishment and neglect. Tests on Hamzah's remains showed he had the bones of a 12 to 18-month-old baby and had no muscle and hardly any flesh when he died. His body was discovered lying in a travel cot wearing a soiled nappy and a sleepsuit for a six to nine-month-old baby.

Drought and flooding damage precarious balance the Horn of Africa
April 26, 2010, Elbilenle, Togdheer Province, Somaliland: The village chief bears the burden of managing Elbilenle's woes caused by drought. The perennial flooding and drought problems that afflict the Horn of Africa and the millions of farmers and pastoralists in the region have been particularly acute in Somaliland, the relatively stable breakaway republic that remains unrecognized internationally. In February 2010, the Somaliland authorities urgently called for aid to help almost 40% of its population or 1.4 million people in need of assistance after 3 consecutive years of failed rains in the region. While rainfall has indeed began to arrive recently in the region, the crisis does not stop with the advent of rain. Recent flooding in Somaliland in February 2010 destroyed water systems and affected crops by damaging large tracts of farmland and caused unconfirmed numbers of livestock deaths. Almost 40,000 people were affected by the recent flooding.///The village chief. Credit: George Philipas / Polaris (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS)
