Somali Civil War

Civilian casualties, overwhelmed hospitals, international aid and relief organizations struggle to cope with the overwhelming numbers of victims of war and famine. The period 1991-1992 was marked by the most intense conflict, when the different clan factions fought for control of land and resources in southern Somalia. This resulted in the devastation of the inter-riverine areas, consequently causing famine and the disruption of farming and livestock production. Increasing numbers of refugees left the country for neighboring Kenya and Ethiopia at that time: the number of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) increased dramatically.
