Abstract

Presents a photo essay of Somalia, where savage civil strife among clans has destroyed the capital of Mogadishu and killed 150,000 people in the past 19 months. The survivors in the mostly desert land are victims of a famine that threatens the lives of 1.8 million of Somalia's nearly six million people. A food airlift has just begun to bring relief.
