Hunger without end

Klaus Petrus

Drought and famine are once again raging in Somalia. Seven million people are affected, half the region's population, most of whom are nomads. Like the goatherd Maylun. She walked with her child Hassan for ten days to the children's hospital in Borama. He was starving and had to be fed through tubes. Two weeks later, the boy, who wanted to be a pilot or a doctor, was dead.
