A Somali boy receives a ration of cornmeal in Mogadishu on August 15, 2011, in the courtyard of a Somali Non-governmental Organization who is partnered with the World Food Program and who serves about 1,000 people daily with a hot meal. Over 100,000 people have fled into Somalia's famine-hit and war-torn capital in the past two months in search of food, water and medicine. Some 12 million people in parts of Ethiopia, Djibouti, Kenya, Uganda and Somalia are in danger of starvation in the wake of the region's worst drought in decades. War-wracked Somalia is the country hardest hit by the Horn of Africa's drought, with five areas declared to be experiencing famine.
