MOGADISHU, Somalia, 9 July 2009 As battles between government forces and armed groups continue to rock Mogadishu, more families are being driven out of their homes in search of safety every day. Over 200,000 of the city's residents have been displaced since a new round of intense fighting erupted at the beginning of May.
Displaced residents are now scattered around the outskirts of the city and further away, many of them in a desperate state.
In response to the displacement crisis and as part of a larger coordinated effort among aid agencies to address Mogagishu's current emergency UNICEF is partnering with the Danish Refugee Council (DRC) and a local non-governmental organization, Somali Youth for Peace and Development (SYPD).
In Daynile district camp, 3,000 displaced households received the emergency supplies in June.
"Even under the current severe circumstances, not responding is not an option," said UNICEF Somalia Emergency Officer Maulid Warfa.
